Allie and I made it safely to Chile. However, we experienced some rough turbulance. It was so bad that we are still finding little pieces of rice stuck in our clothes from the drinks and food flying everywhere. I almost pooped my pants and Allie was the good calm sister even though she admitted later that she was indeed pretty darn scared for her life.
We are headed to a wonderful orthodox church tomorrow. We saw their icon class and a lot of people attend. After church we plan to go to our first farm about 2 hours from the capital. We are staying in a little hotel-hostal where the people are soo nice and speak only Spanish. :) I am trying to speak only Spanish to Allie to her surprise and shes already understanding so much Spanish. However, that does come with frustration and a headache. Lots more to say, but we have to get off the internet. Lots of love from Chile and missing home!
