Santiago in Winter!!!!
The View From Brad's Office Window
We arrived in Santiago, Chile almost a week ago! Things are going well - at least now. Brad & I were sick soon after we arrived; fevers & colds. We haven't had too much time to explore, but here are some pictures of the beautiful Andes! They really are amazing. Sometimes I look at them and can hardly believe they are real or that we're here.
It is definitely winter here. The weather has been rainy, most days and about 50 degrees Farenheit during the day and 30 degrees Farenheit at night. We're so glad we brought our winter coats. While it is raining down in the city, it is snowing up in the mountains, which makes for some good skiing - so we've heard!
We will be posting some blogs from the past month, so be sure to look below! I hope to be better about posting more regular blogs now that we are more settled!

Unbelieveable! I had no idea the Andes were that big, or that close. What a gorgeous thing to see out your window every day.
How do those big palm trees survive nights that are below freezing?
The Andes are unbelievable! I don't think it gets below freezing for very long. Our windows have condensation on them in the morning and it is never frozen. The palm trees seem to do alright as well as the green grass, the jade (which grows like crazy bushes!), and the pansies!
Glad to see that you're getting settled. It looks amazing!
I'm quite jealous of the incredible view from your bathroom! The view from our bathroom looks directly into the neighbors bathroom. Not so nice.
Yeah, these views sure beat the view out of our living room in Philly-- I'm sure we told you all about the neighbor's shower by the window...
Glad you are both feeling better!
Thanks for sharing the view of the Andes--fantastic!
wow-so beautiful! what a breath of fresh air compared to the urban life you left in philly, huh? did you see any young boys with wire cutters walking around on your first day there?
