whats the plan?

Well Dad arrived with a nice little care package courtesy of REI.. we had called in an order in Lima and he picked it up in Dallas.. you really need to go and buy one of these folks

it has been our salvation in the land of instant coffee.. Heather also got replacement shoes YAY! And along with a travel size Vegemite our breakfast sitch is looking up BIG TIME!

in other news the button on my camera is getting a bit dodge.. and now it only is able to be in automatic mode.. no manual.. lucky it did not ¨stick¨in video mode.. whew! Sometimes it´s taking 3-4 presses before it will take the photo.. I hope it can hold on a bit longer.

We spent the last day of Dad´s visit in Santiago chilling out.. walking around the Plaza de Armas watching the myriad of street performers and painters .. stopped at the Chilean Starbucks ¨Starlight coffee¨which was suprisingly good! we also visited the Museo Pre Columbia Arte which had a really awesome exhibite on headdresses worn by the different cultures from mexico to the tip of south america.. and losts more pottery and our second Quipo.. very good museum in our opinion and free for ISIC students.. bargain!
