La Provendicia de Chile

Hola familia y amigos! We arrived safely to our host famlys house sin problemas.  They are a wonderful couple who has taken us in and even given us our own casita in the back.  At this moment they are filling up their pool for us to swim in,  as it is summer here and quite warm! We have taken lots of pictures and will try to post them from school this week.  

In the meantime, for those of you who thought were going to a distant country lacking many things, here are some thoughts 

1.  Ederly people here navagate the web like nobodys business
2. There is a Starbucks on every corner.  
3. Where there is not Starbucks, there is burger king, mcdonalds or KFC.
4.  The Wii is very popular and wii fit is in stock.
5.  Pulic transportation is easy, cheap and safe.

More to come later.  Hasta pronto

Dude...Starbucks took over Chile too? WTF? Let me know how many Starbucks kiosks you see on the Machu Pichu Trail. Apparently nothing is sacred anymore.

I dare you to challenge the locals to a game of wii baseball. All of America's pride rests on your win. Good luck.

Woohoo Starbucks! Glad to see they have them there too. I'll add Chile to my list of approved destinations now. At least you and hubby can still get your morning coffees. ~Saunders
