Christmas Eve, Santiago


Christmas (Eve) dinner consists of steak and chips followed by salsa dancing in a restaurant in Santiago. Even Santa makes an appearance to dole out presents for the children.

It's an early start to Christmas Day. I have joined a group travelling into Bolivia and we have a six-hour bus journey to La Serena leaving at 7.40am. I can sense the air is getting hotter and drier. Unfortunately the air con is broken so we're all a bit sweaty and disgruntled by the time we arrive. I also have a grisly child sitting next to me, and even with ear plugs I'm unable to make much progress on Anna Karenina.
