Why do they have to move the punctuation around HA! and I mean that in the nicest way! The keyboards threw me for a loop when I was in Venezuela last summer too. I dont know Chile, but I would suggest finding a nice hotel and ask them for a good resturant and chow down on local foods and alcohols!

I used to fly AA all the time, but over that time I noticed how much they sucked. Delays, overselling flights, poor customer service, etc. Now I fly Delta, not much better mind you, but I have yet to hear them as for "volunteers" to get off the plane cuz they oversold. Good luck, have fun, and be safe.

NWFlyer 2 #12 October 10, 2005 Rosa, WTF is going on with the helmet in your new avatar? I think I need to see a full-size version. And no, I don't feel the slightest bit bad about threadjacking this because it's not like Beth was getting any useful info on what to do in Santiago (well, except for Vinny's very generic "churches and museums" suggestion).

TheAnvil 0 #13 October 10, 2005 To help you on your quest for drinking excellence in Santiago, I have found the following: Beer, Wine & Liquor -- Start your meal with a tangy pisco sour, the Chilean national drink made of the grape brandy pisco, fresh-squeezed lemon, sugar, and sometimes an egg white. Be careful -- they're potent. Chile is known for its excellent wine production, but the country unfortunately exports its very finest varieties to outside markets. However, you'll find that restaurants and shops offer a selection of good to excellent wine varieties at low prices compared to U.S. standards. A simple but decent red table wine such as Santa Emiliana, for example, sells for $2.50 in the supermarket. Apart from lager, you won't find a wide selection of beer in Chile. Escudo and Cristal are the major Budweiser-like brands, but there's also Austral, Becker, and the darker Morenita. If you're in the Lake District, order Kunstman, probably the best beer in Chile. A schop is a draft beer. Vinny the Anvil Post Traumatic Didn't Make The Lakers Syndrome is REAL JACKASS POWER!!!!!! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
