One more gringo in the house!

Ellen is here!!! Yey!


Thursday we had a team bonding dinner at KY (http://www.restobarky.cl/). Thai food restaurant that looks like a scary ghetto place on the outside and once you enter it's like Willy Wonka's magical basement.

Saturday we met Ethel and family for breakfast at Cafe Melba. After we went to Ethel's apartment and had a photoshoot on the balcony. Notice the snow capped mountains in the background.

Then we went shopping at Portonato! Cheap Cheap Cheap!

Fresh cut fruit for 1,000 CLP



And Churrrrrrrros!!!!!!!!  Destiny had been craving churros all day...and we were so happy when we finally found them!

This is the churro cart right outside of the Portonato metro station.  They were crazy good...filled with chocolately, carmely, manjar type stuff....yum!


Gringo Approved!



After our churro coma we decided we needed to eat again....so off to Bar Liguria. This place I'd heard about for months and never got the chance to go.  It did not dissapoint. Super cool atmosphere and good drinks and good food! I'm ready to go back!






My favorite purchase of the day was bling for my cell phone....for 500 pesos (1 dollar)....can you believe it?? 


Here's the other pattern I got!


Today is St Peter and St Paul day in Chile, so I'm off work.  Ellen and I headed out to Cerro San Cristobal and then had a coffee at Patio Bella Vista.  It's been a great visit and hopefully we'll have some more adventures before we both fly back to the States on Friday night! Yey!!!
