Another Off the Bucket List

Well, time has come and its nearly all over. We have arrived in Santiago and have some time here to have a look at this city and then its time to make our way home.

We have done the usual city tour. Santiago is a nice city,but as you know, cities are not our favourite places. Just a few photos from what we have seen this morning.

The presidents palace

We were lucky to be taken inside the stock exchange, a beautiful old building, but no photos inside.

We were quiet amazed at the amount of green park areas and well kept

We leave here tonight and all I can say is that this has been one of the best holidays that we have ever had. Okay, we enjoy all our trips but this one goes up there to the top of the list. We have seen the most remarkable sights and have met wonderful people .

We will remember it all but I do know Antarctica will always be a special place for us. The sights and feelings that we saw and had there just cannot be put into words.

But we come home happy that we have done here what we came to do and ready to start planning the next adventure.

The Arctic, here we come.
