The whole ordeal with the flights

okay so im gonna tell u the whole ordeal about the flights and this is a long story so brace yourself. so here it goes....

when we got to the albuquerque airport sunday the 17th and u know said goodbye and all that jazz we got on the plane to Dallas well after all the security checks and all that. lol. this is so random. okay back to the story...we got on the flight which wasnt as bad as i thought it would be. i really work myself up to much about things.on the flight we (charles and I) sat next to this cute little boy and his mom. he had the curliest hair ever. he was so cute the whole time on the flight he was coloring this puppy book. that really makes me miss my coloring book. i need to go buy one. lol okay so one thing that did suck about the flight is that my left ear would not pop for anything. it was like the worst ear pain ever. but i got over it and i was good. okay so when we arrived in Dallas Sergio went to check on our flight to Santiago. when he came back he told us that the flight was postponed and that we were going to have to stay in Dallas for the night and then catch the plane the next day at 7 something in the morning. we waited around the airport before they gave us our vouchers for our dinner, snack and hotel (the westin) i laughed so hard when i found out where we were going to stay there because i mean westin is my best friends name except its spelled weston not westin. lol okay dang i get side tracked so bad. lol. so when we got on the shuttle to our hotel this crepy dude kept staring at me it was freaking me out so bad. i was like stop staring at me u creepy dude. lol but charles told me to move and well of course i did. on the shuttle sergio met one of his best friends who was on the same flight it was so crazy and random. we got to the hotel room and we had half an hour to get ready so all i did was watch the olympics. cause i didnt have my luggage with me whiched really made me mad but hey i could have got my luggage but i didnt want to hassle with the baggage claim whole thing. so i just relaxed and then charles came to get me. oh by the way weston if ur reading this i took the shampoo from the hotel u can totally have it i mean it does have ur name on it. lol. so i went down to dinner and ate a salad which was the best looking thing on the menu. lol. then me and charles left Sergio and his friend and went to charles´s room were we watched Ironman. i forgot how good that movie was. after the movie i totally went back to my room and passed out. i mean it was like 2 in the morning so i was like really tired. 3 hours later charles called me and woke me up which im totally glad for because i could have slept till noon. so i then woke up and packed everything up and headed to the airport. (oh by the way Charles got my snack voucher lost so yeah) at the airport we had to wait while the maintence crew fixed something on the plane. god i was so scared i was trying really hard not to freak out. Charles on the other hand was sleeping he pulled an all nighter and stayed up watching movies. our flight was supposed to leave at like 7 but it wound up leaving at like 9 thanks to some maulfunction on the plane. i was so bored waiting there for like 2 hours. well when we finally got on the plane me and charles were put in like the middle of the plane which was good because theres less noise. on the flight to Santiago they played the movie 21 but i was so tired that i fell asleep like 5 times during the movie so some other time im so gonna have to rent that movie. also during the flight we watched episodes of how i met ur mother, the big bang theory and the new adventures of old christine. oh and i actually ate on the plane. its amazing i know right but it was good it was pasta. so im good with pasta.i even got a pair of free headphones. so thats even better. when we got to Santiago we found out yet again that our flight was postponed until the next morning so we were going to have to spent the night in Santiago. i was looking forward to touring the city but because we got there so late all we did was head straight to the hotel. when we got to the hotel i was amazed at how nice it was. i thought that the westin in Dallas was nice the hotel in Santiago made the westin in Dallas look like a super 8. oh and there was two cute guys that worked at the hotel so that made it even better. lol. oh and this time we had our luggage with us so of course i had to change my outfit. lol. i wound up arriving to dinner late. because i had to do my nails, hair and change my outfit. always make an impression thats my new motto. lol. well i mean they only gave me an hour to get ready come on people should know by now that i need at least 2 hours to get ready. lol. so i went down to the first floor but nobody was at the restaurant down stairs so the guy that worked down there told me to go to the 17th floor because there was a bar up there. so i did and lo and behold they were there waiting for me. Sergio introduced me to another one of his friends. who was really cool because he had this really awesome accent. yeah i know im a blonde. i had this really good drink it was some strawberry thingy. lol no it was not alcoholic. i dont want to scare my mom. lol. after dinner i went back to my room took a shower and went to bed. i also charged my ipod i had to get an adapter but charles took care of that for me. thank god i went with charles down here. in the morning i got woken up by Sergio saying that they were waiting for me down stairs that the taxi was already there and omg needless to say i jumped out of bed threw everything in a bag and took off running down the hallway. i got downstairs jumped in the taxi and we took off to the airport. if i would have taken any longer. we wouldnt have been able to catch our flight. because after to checking our bags and going through security we barely got to our gate on time. on the flight from Santiago to Calama we were all spilt up and i had to sit next to people that i didnt know. but the guy that i sat next to was nice and they showed a documentry on david beckham so i was totally good. the guy that i sat next to on the plane said that he had some family in Albuquerque so that was cool. when we arrived in Calama it was already the 19th it offically toook us 3 days to get there. the airport in Calama was small. i mean we had to land outside and it was freezing. we had to go down those little steps that u see in movies. it was cool but freezing. we had to wait around the airport for like an hour before we got our rental car. but in the time we were waiting we got to see this police officer in this cool pimping uniform. it was like an army green color. i loved it. well we finally got our rental car and we took off to San Pedro.

and thats the story on how we finally came to arrive in San Pedro. yes this post was really long and detailed but believe me i cut this post down alot. now all i have to do is write a post about everyday since we got here. thats gonna take awhile. lol that and i really need to learn spanish. and get more sleep. last night i got 9 hours of sleep thats the most i´ve gotten in the whole time ive been here. lol. well ttyl for now. love and miss everyone.
