Chile! Finally!

  We have finally arrived in Chile! After an extremely strenuous journey in which I saw Chris almost fight 2 American Airlines Managers, we have arrived! We had a few minor setbacks. We were unable to get our boats on the plane, no matter how adamant we were about them being surf boards. Luckily we were able to get in contact with Ian Garcia at riverslakesoceans.com and it sounds like we're back in business!
  With the Mission of buying a car and obtaining an RUT number and cell phone we have been posted up in Santiago. After we arrived in Chile and spending an intense day around Santiago, we decided it was time to get down to business!

Ill post another update once we actually start kayaking!

  4. Oye, chicos -

    You guys out of Santiago yet?

    Watch out for John for me if he joins this adventure - I only have two brothers, and I'd hate to have to fall back on my spare sibling. Remember: his body is denser than depleted uranium.

    In other words, he's a real sinker.
