Home...

More detail to follow, for all those who endure travel shows on cable, and enjoy photographic attempts at mirroring what we've seen and done. Let's keep today short, however, as there are tons of things to do this first day back...

However, not as quite as short as one paragraph:

We saw my host brother and sisters on the trip, it was great to be able to catch up and see where their lives have taken them.
We ate more meals out in restaurants than I'd have predicted, but never had a bad one. Some were simply outstanding, and the prices were very reasonable. Just because we had too many desserts at lunch and ran up the bill isn't a Chilean fault.
It rained twice, quite a surprise to all Chileans. Rains usually cease in September. These storms were a gift, as the air in Santiago was cleansed, and new snow dropped on the mountains, just for us.

Anything more will have to wait for the camera to get hooked up and more pictures to dominate future posts. Hopefully I can get two or three of those done before the weekend....when Nate leaves for Colorado and we head south for sunshine. Oh...the weather aside from the rain in Chile was perfect. Generally 75-80 each day, a couple of 90-degree days to remind us that it is a dry climate and approaching summer.
