Day 2- Communication and food

Got the phone charged and started calling and looking for cars. Apparently when you get the chip you also have to pay for the minutes to use the phone, we weren’t told that so we were trying to make calls and had very limited usage. Slightly frustrating. The phone was loaned to us (thanks Valora) which was cool not to have to buy one, but it has some idiosyncrasies (touch screen doesn't always work, buttons are easily pushed wrong), slightly frustrating. Apparently the pharmacists have power to heal phones too, since we were directed to them. Sure enough, they fixed the phone, it only took $ 4.000 Chilean pesos, its only about $8 USD.

It has also been funny to see the dogs, and the hierarchy of dogs. You have street dogs, the community dogs that people kinda take care of, personal dogs that live outside with owners and dogs that live inside. A sure sign that a dog has an owner is the doggie sweater, not just limited to little dogs and not just limited to the winter.

We were walking around and decided to get some food. We stopped in a restaurant and ordered some typical Chilean fast food (that took forever to arrive at our table, we are used to it, every restaurant serves us last). On the bright side, their french fries are the absolute best!

                                         My question is which bottle is the ketchup? 

                                                   Niki loves this picture of her!

On the topic of food, what we love the most here is the bread. It is absolutely the best. There are two types, Maraqueta (mar-ah-ket-ah) and Hahulla (ah-you-yah). Its made fresh daily and eaten for once (oh-say) their dinner usually after 8 pm and desayuno (breakfast) with meat and cheese or jams.
