tio Eduardo & tia Pit's house


We went shopping at Chile's version of Wal*Mart, Jumbo, and there is an aisle dedicated to clothing for la nana. In Chile, everyone has a nana unless you are a nana. She does the cleaning, cooking and babysitting. In some houses, she comes once a week and in others, every day.

this picture is for Larkin

All of the houses we saw today had large fences and gates enclosing the most beautiful patios and gardens. The streets here are filled with orange trees, jasmine, willows and so many other beautiful aromatic plants I feel like I'm in the tropics--not a huge metropolitan city!

The park behind mi primas house.
We are excited to do yoga with the virgin who spends her days protecting everyone in Santiago.

This is probably 1/16 of the city...!

Here is our pal Gaucho (cowboy) peeking through our bedroom window... he is so cute and wiggly and playful (but don't worry Sunday & Mason, not as cute as y'all)

Elisa and her papa, Sebastian

the gang at lunch our first day


I mean come on, isn't she the cutest?!
Hey Larkin and Scott: how's Henrille coming along?
