On the Monday we relaxed in the morning then headed into town.\u00a0 I spent a little bit of time online and then met Mum and Dad in the centre square where we people watched and read.\u00a0 You could hire bikes and cars propelled by undersized electric batteries and it was hilarious watching the Chilean kids trying to make them go faster and crashing.\u00a0 That really wasn\u00b4t meant to sound so sadistic.\u00a0 I was actually quite pro-kids at this moment in time, rather than my usual interactions with them.<\/p>\n
\u00a0<\/p>\n
Whilst in town we went to the Museo Entomologico E Historia Natural (Natural History and Insect museum).\u00a0 There were big bugs and natural history type things which were really interesting.\u00a0 Okay, so that was perhaps the most redundant sentence on my blog so far!<\/p>\n
\u00a0<\/p>\n
Back at the campsite we relaxed and had a swim.\u00a0 In the evening Dad did the funniest thing with the torch.\u00a0 I\u00b4m cringing at describing this already as I think it\u00b4s one of those, “you had to be there”, moments, but I\u00b4ll tell you anyway.\u00a0 So, basically, there was a little torch in the van and Dad was playing about with it.\u00a0 As he was turning the top he said, “It\u00b4s really quite clever this as if you turn it too far…” and at that point the top kind of sprung off and flung all its innards all over the floor.\u00a0 Mum wasn\u00b4t far behind the torch innards in fits of laughter and my eyes were streaming!\u00a0 And if you didn\u00b4t find that funny, “I guess you had to be there”.\u00a0 Either that or you\u00b4ve spent too much time with Astronomers thinking of witty acronyms!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
