Free Afternoon in Santiago

After a morning meeting with Metro Santiago to learn about the operations and challenges of the subway system here, we all had a free afternoon on Friday. Many people went shopping at some point, so many of you at home can expect to receive some great gifts from today's efforts.

Many of us also made it to the top of San Cristobal Hill today to see the Virgin Mary statue and get a fantastic view of the city from above.

This was our last full day in Santiago. On Saturday we are headed to the coast to visit the sister cities of Valparaiso and Vina del Mar, and then on Sunday morning we fly to Peru.
