Our last day of vacation today, we leave tonight to go home. We decided to pay an extra $40 to have our room until 4PM, we are planning on being outside today and it is going to be hot, a shower will be needed before we get on that long plane ride.

Someone tenting right on the main pedestrian walkway in the morning |
 |
When you are up early it is so quiet, especially on a weekend |
 |
Huge nativity scene in the main square |
 |
Walked to the central market. Lots of vendors just setting up |
 |
The market is full of restaurants as well, everyone trying to get us to stop for breakfast |
 |
The cathedral is open today, so we got to visit |
 |
THese were life size, I can't imagine moving them, they must be so heavy |
We walked around looking for the free museum that we had seen on the walking tour earlier. Turns out it was kinda free, Andre was free because he was over 60, I think Wendy was $2.00
 |
Arianna would have loved this, too big to bring home |
 |
This birds of CHile display was really nice |
 |
Photography part of the museum |
 |
Next another walk in order to Santa Lucia Hill |
 |
View from Santa Lucia Hill. In the distance you can see where we took the funicular the other day up the mountain |
Lunch break. $10 for a soup, main and dessert (Jello)
 |
Last ice cream break |
Very fast taxi driver to the airport. The pickup date at the hotel was mixed up and he was about 30 minutes late picking us up, I think he made up the time on the drive! No traffic today as its the weekend.
Red eye home, but it did go pretty fast. Customs was a bit of mess in Toronto with luggage, but we did make it in lots of time for our connection, many missed theirs. We got in early to Toronto and I don't think they were ready for us, computers were down, and they made us pick up our luggage eventually after a bit of a wait. Passed the time for us as we had a 3 hour connection.
End of an amazing trip, now on to planning the next.
