As we checked out of the Hyatt we were reminded why we didn't stay at such hotels this trip....while wonderful, it was a very expensive two day stay. Our three day stay in the country helped to balance the price, and since we didn't eat anything except crackers and cheese from the supermercado while we were there that was the cheap part of our Argentina stay.
We had a 1:00 flight which went over the Andes to Santiago in half an hour. After clearing customs in Chile for the third time this trip, we rented our car and headed out on the drive to the wine country. The Avis folks helped us with a shortcut to the highway that allowed us to skip downtown Santiago...that was a treat after driving through it so many times on the last trip here.
We got to the Inn at about 4:45 where the kind staff made us feel like long lost frineds. It is 5:30 and we are enjoying our free internet out on the back deck. It is probably about 80 depgrees and clear and beautiful. With the exception of Rio, we have had exceptionally beautiful weather. It is good to be back at this wonderful part of Chile that we enjoyed so much on the last visit.
We have CNN again. Mike is a happy political junkie once again.

Mikey- Deep inside every Handron there is an accountant struggling to get out! Congratulations on the perfect score. You are a true scholar. I know from experience that it takes lots of hard work and smarts to ace an accounting exam. Wait...I'm not sure I EVER got a 100% on any of mine. You rock!
