Chilly Chile

Picture cold and crap and you're there

all seasons in one day 0 °C

We arrived in Chile hopeful for more awesome adventures as before, but were kind of knocked back by how rubbish it was. Not much to do during the day, and evenings were very quiet and very cold. Trying to make the most of a bad situation we made our own fun.

What do you think of our funky new doos?

Kieran here is cutting Mark's hair with nail clippers...pro.

Because it was so god damn cold, we bought some sexay long johns. Easy ladies!

One of the only things to do in the city was the national zoo. Kieran was on cloud nine with all of the animal sightings. Prepare to be bamboozled by the animals spotted!

We had to delete the other 50 photos of old brain bum that Kieran took. This was the least disgusting one out of them.

Carrying on up the mountain there was Chile's version of Christ the Redeemer, but with a Mary vibe to it. Genius!
Incredible views = Incredible fun.

The cable car on the way down was a little bit rickety, so DaBoyz were pooing their pants a little.

On the last day in Chile we managed to hook up with our brother from another mother Junior from Florianopolis (owner of Backpackers), his girlfriend Amanda and her friend Pamela. This was definately the best time we had in Chile (the morning after was NOT so good). One tip: drink pisco in moderation. Lesson learnt.

Well that's Chile done...see, wasn't much to see there after all!

The lack of things to do, cold weather, and expensive places sent us off to our next destination in record timing. Some would say that is a good thing.

Sorry about this rubbish blog entry, the next one we promise will be better! wink wink, nudge nudge! Oh, friday night tonight in Wellington, we'll try to cause some drama for you lot back home.

Much love

DaBoyz
