Driving to Santiago was one of the best bus journeys we have taken. We passed stunning lakes and snow capped mountains before winding through ski-resorts. The Andes were beautiful! Although the snow was melting they were still covered in a white sheet. One part of the road was a constant zigzag and we whizzed around thirty corners. At times we were convinced that we'd crash as our large bus tried to turn every corner a little too fast. During this ride we had to stop at immigration and get off the bus. I was totally unprepared!! In the snow, I stood in a skirt and flipflops hugging tightly to my jumper smiling at sympathetic eyes. Our bags were taken off the bus and passed through a scanner. Our friends luggage was pulled up for inspection and they pulled out a dinosaur toy we had given them during the salt flat tour! Oops! As well as tipping every baggage guy in Argentina, we were expected to tip the border control for checking our bags! After checking in to the hostel with our friends, we walked into town hoping to find the capsule used to rescue the Chile miners. Sadly it had been moved from the presidential square to another town. We roughly followed our guidebook and walked around the city checking out the Cathedral. From a trailer we grabbed a hot dog completely smothered in guacamole! More sauce than sausage! Heading past the plaza and the malls, we walked into a city park. Despite being small and pretty central, it was peaceful and pretty. As we walked up we reached a lookout point and had spectacular views of the city and the snow capped mountains that surrounded it. It was gorgeous! We crossed the river and arrived in the Bohemian area but most places seemed closed. Our friends were heading to New Zealand so we nipped in a few shops with them before going back to the hostel for drinks and BBQ. After saying goodbye to our friends we chilled in the hostel for an hour or two. Both of us were mega excited when we received an email saying offering us a job in Fiji! The whole day was filled with Fiji thoughts and Santiago went to the back of our minds. We're going to be looking after Vorovoro, a 200 acre island - the place we visited during our trip to Fiji in June. Whilst there we will be taking care of the grounds, the animals and the buildings. Although there will be no other tourists living with us, there is a small Fijian village five minutes away. We made so many good friends in Fiji and cannot wait to hear their laughter once again!
