I had about 12 hours in Santiago between when I got off the bus and had to leave for the airport. I bought some groceries, cooked a couple meals at the hostel, and took a snooze in the sun. Then it was time to go!
On my walk to the supermarket, I passed this dog. He was people watching.
Oh, and to make matters worse, I’m ALSO missing the JUDAS PRIEST show tonight. Another kick to the nuts.
Imagine it’s your birthday. You’re in Santiago, Chile. You have abandoned many of the friends you’ve been having such a great time with, since your trip is almost done and you really want to see Patagonia, some 3500km away. So you buy tickets adding up to some 40 hours on the bus, leaving the evening of your birthday, heading to southern Chile.
While waiting for your bus, you come across a poster. One of your very favourite bands is playing… tonight! your birthday! in Chile!
But the show is sold out, so you just head to the bus station and get ready for an agonizingly long journey.
p.s. not only is Animal Collective in town tonight; so are Unkle and Simian Mobile Disco! check concert listings before buying bus tickets.
