Chile

Day 1

We had to wake up at around 5:30 in the morning to go to the airport since our plane was at 9. We got there a little early so we headed to the lounge to chill for a while until our plane took off. We boarded the plane and then took off for a 3 and a half hour plane ride to Santiago, Chile.

When we landed we were forced to go threw customs which took a lot longer than we expected ( it took 1 and a half hours! ). Thank fully we took all our baggage as carry on’s so we didn’t have to wait any longer at baggage claim. After we got to the hotel we set off to go to the tallest building in South America, the Sky Costanera! To get to the top we had to go 61 floors with one more you could just walk up by yourself! We waited until it got dark so we could see the lights and then left. When we got to the hotel we grabbed a quick bite and then went for a night swim. By the time we finished we were passed out so we fell straight asleep. Today was only half a day and we had so much fun, imagine what tomorrow will be!

Day 2

Today was more chill and we could wake up late which was great for me as I love to sleep in. When I finally got out of bed we went go get breakfast and then took a cab to go to Santiago’s Mirador interactive museum. At the museum there were magic harps, a make your own giant bubble station, a giant whirlpool and so much more. We did two activities where we were in a earthquake simulation and one where we were in a virtual space world.

After we finished we went to Plaza de Armas to take a little walk and to visit around there. We found our selves in a food court that was right next to a jewelry market. Once we got tired we left back to the hotel.

We rested a little bit and then went to the top of a hotel for some drinks and snacks. We got a little cold so we walked back to the hotel for some dinner. After we ate we fell right asleep and woke up the next morning.

Day 3

Today we went to Valparaìso so we had to wake up early in the morning so we could get there pretty early. It was about an hour and a half trip but when we finally got there it was so worth it. When we got there we ate breakfast and then visited around. The entire place is decorated in graffiti and murals.

We got back in the car and then went to visit a bridge and visit some colorful steps. Some of the steps were rainbow and the others with some words. Along the way we passed by a hotel that had it’s entire wall painted as a mural.

After we finished that we took a trip to Viña del Mar where we went to visit the dock. After that we went back to Valparaìso where we ate lunch. We were pretty tired after so we went back to the hotel and rested for a while. We went to the pool and then ate dinner. Tomorrow my dad has work so I will just be staying home so technically today is the last day. Bye Guys, and until next time.
