I was quite disappointed that, upon arrival to Miami, Will Smith and his sexy female back up singers did not come popping out of thin air to sing "Welcome to Miami! Bienvenidos a Miami...." like I so desperately had dreamed... *tear*
When I arrived in Santiago, per usual, I was sleep deprived, and feeling quite shoddy. I was, however, welcomed with smiles and kindness as I went through Customs, and then through Customs Parte Dos with my luggage. It was quite pleasant. I, of course, fail prey to the vultures who can spot a lost tourist a mile away.... Now I'm out 10 luca pesos....
Top on my "Need to do" list: LEARN HOW TO NOT TRUST THOSE PEOPLE. AND QUIT LOOKING LIKE A TOURIST.
Marce's cousin, Carmen, and her family have welcomed me with extra opened-open arms! Its wonderful to feel at home so many thousands of miles away!
I've gotten approximately 45 minutes of real sleep within the past 30 hours.... Starting to feel a bit more refreshed, but still tired.
After I pass out tonight, I will wake up tomorrow to take a personalized tour with some of the family. YAY!
So excited, and feeling so surreal about this entire situation...

These pictures were taken just before I left RDU. Finally, I have a picture with Papa!
Mom and Papa, HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!!!!!!!!
Besos!
