Day 3.5 & 4 – leaving Santiago

View from Santa Lucia Hill

We headed out early evening to go have dinner at the Nam en el Cerro Santa Lucia –  a festival of produce from around Chile. And also to see the sun set from the Castillo Hidalgo at the peak of the hill.

The produce was amazing and the view of Santiago spectacular. It was fun exploring the nooks and crannies at the peak. We bought some free range eggs from a local who had spent 2 years on a dairy farm in Geraldine . 

We grabbed an Uber to the airport the following morning and found out on route that Ubers are not allowed at the airport. 10 minutes of Google translate and a friend on the drivers phone resulted in us agreeing we were familia and would be discrete in the payment of cash (Uber would not work)

After a 3.15 flight, we landed in Punta Arena (53.10 Deg South) – the most southern part of our journey – or in fact as far south either of us have ever been
