Ain't seen any post's from my fellow Canuck, Ilija. Did I miss something or is he down south sucking up some sun in search of those flea market deals? Usually he is in every thread. Just wondered.

South American vacation, I think
Chile, specifically.
He started this thread in the OFF TOPIC forum in early February
On Vacation

Thanks guy's, I really don't pay attention to the off topic very much. I guess I should.

It's nice and quiet don't you think? :D
He's just giving us a chance to catch up in the post count. Joe, can you rig it so that we ALL have more posts than he does??? Just for a few days???:y

Sorry Randy, but that cannot be done. However, I find your concern extremely touching :rolleyes:
I am still on vacation, will be back in a week or so, and until then I won´t post nearly as much. Last 3 days I was OOC as we went to the cottage where they had no internet. Gave me the shakes from withdrawal symptoms :cry:
Not far from where we "cottaged". Did you drive through the eucalyptus forests? They smell great. Buy some of the local wares if you can. We got some fanastically cheap pottery. You might want to do yourself a favour and splurge for an authentic Chilean poncho. It's the one thing I regret not getting my hands on when I was there.

Thanks for the tips X. Yes we did... It wasn´t very fragrant at this time of the year but the drive in general was very scenic. I already have tons of Chilean pottery including those dishes used for pastel de choclo and cups that I think are used for tea but that I use for Turkish-style coffee as they´re the right size. What I will definitely be looking into is some indigenous music and local hats, probably traditional Euro.
:tu :tu :tu
Another update.. It LOOKS like we´ll be hitting Viña for a few days of beach time. I may be MIA as of today.
