| A short flight over the Andes from Mendoza to Santiago |
Up at 8 for our last breakfast at the Huentala. We checked out, and Mike took us to the airport. We took the short flight over the Andes to
Santiago, Chile. Our guide spoke to us in German until she realised we were English. Our hotel,
Le Reve, is in the Providencia district, a leafy part of town, with 3 restaurants opposite and shops nearby. We had lunch at a vegetarian place. Our room is very nice. Huge walk-in shower too.

| A Mexican snack with our cocktails |
We felt quite tired and rested for the afternoon. At about 8pm we ventured out, foregoing the midnight snacks at the hotel. Across the main street we found an area full of cafe tables with a happy hour. We were enticed in for a cocktail and ended up trying caipirinhos, pisco sours and margaritas - all two for one. We also had nachos with guacamole, and staggered home a couple of hours later. Slept soundly till 8am!
