Ten hour flight and ready for sleep we arrive at Santiago airport. We noticed that there was a different line for Aussies. mm $61 tourist visa entry fee for Aussies. We became British in a flash!….

The airport had minor damage, lots of ceiling collapse but the main structures are fine. We head off for a shuttle to our hotel - 20 USD! Seems a bit steep.

Our hotel – internet special is called the Fundador and has just been taken over by the Blue Tree group. The staff are fantastic… the decoration of the hotel a nightmare. We were amused to see that on our last day between going down for breakfast and returning the walls had been painted bright…white!
