I´ve often found that the beautiful vistas and world renowned museums found while traveling don´t hold a candle to the random encounters of the road. Our backyard barbeque, hosted and prepared by Mauricio, the owner of the Hospedaje, is an example of that. With a makeshift grill - 6 bricks and an old, and possibly rusted, screen - what seemed like 15 or 20 lbs of meat, a few cold beers, and a good blend people, we had ourselves a nice little shindig. Cory and I didn´t know which part of the event we
appreciated most; the wonderful (and free) meal, the amusement of the grill, or that the whole party didn´t begin until 11:30 at night.Well, that´s all.

Looks like you postponed being a vegetarian just in the knick of time for that feast!
ReplyDeleteDid you write this open barbeque story before you became sick (being a vegatarian)?
ReplyDeleteAre you still in Santiago or have you traveled further south? Chileans love to party and want others to have a good time.
Are you carryinga book of quotes or are those just rolling off...?
