Ok, so I was an absolutely adorable lady bug and need to send out some pics soon. Had a great time preparing costuming and went to a very nice house where it was a vampire party, got to say it was a culture shock when someone is used to the Halloweens of San Francisco. NO ONE DRESSES UP HERE, but I was so adorable I really did not care :) Bought a black sequin dress from the fair, very similar to a flea market! ya! and it was only $4. only problem was for some reason I am like 20 feet taller then most people here, with broader shoulders, longer torso, etc. so my awesome buelle fixed it up. I am not going to lie mom, but everyone here is really quick about repairs and hemming clothes....(hint hint, nudge nudge, wink, wink) After the party, just really danced the night away, had some cerviche, they did NOT have any candy!! and no one had reeses cups..remember our halloween last year Jonny? and everyone else for that matter...
ok, so next morning drove to Pichlemou...totally mispelt that. it is an awesome surf town about 4 hours south west of Santiago. (got to see lots of little towns, some awesome trees, they have lots of Eucylptus here, and drove through some mountains, similar to SC, but obviously no redwoods on the way to the coast) a very pretty view, very cold water, we more or less camped out on the beach, looked at the surfers and the waves. nice to bring me back to my surfing roots...wait, no one in the family surfs, but we all like the water...yes_?
Some interesting things about Pichi..well, just like the other beach town Zapillar, the service was really bad, and slow, takes like an hour to be served..they sold counterfit Billabong and Quicksilver hats for like 1500 pesos ($3). I did not buy any. not that I have a huge moral stance on intellectual property, but just they looked cheap to me.. I really have to say there is a difference in the clothing here, some things are totally of equal quality to what I like, but is very expsensive, or things that are cheaper, well you can tell, I think it is because there are different levels on regulation..
on the drive back I started really thinking about how much I miss my friends, family......ok read onto next blog
