A NIGHT AT THE AIRPORT HOTEL IN SANTIAGO, CHILE

We are at the Holiday Inn in Santiago, Chile.  The hotel is literally right across a street from the terminal.  We flew from Iguazu Falls, Argentina to Buenos Aires.  Then another flight from Buenos Aires to Santiago.  Not much else to describe today.  It really is amazing how tiring doing very little can be.  Checking into and out of planes and airports.

A note about eating in Argentina.  EVERYTHING has ham on it.  I got a hamburger - it had ham.  Almost all sandwiches were ham and .....  fill in the blank.  Jamon cocido (what we think of as ham in the US) and Jamon crudo - Prociutto Ham.  There's also a big emphasis on potatoes.  I don't remember so much ham the last time we were here.  Kind of Monty Pythonesque Ham Ham Ham and Ham.

Until tomorrow in Easter Island - with photos.
