PATIO BELLAVISTA
We went this evening with Paskki and Willy to an area in Santiago, called Bellavista ( Beautiful View)
It is a bohemian area of old Santiago, where artists, poets, and writers live.
Also now to accomodate the many tourists, a terrace with many cafes and restaurants, shops and concert houses has been build.
I sat in the back seat and videotaped as Willy drove downtown.
I was doing some research to find a perfect place to meet with all of my cousins, in an open air cafe, where I can seat and talk, take photos and hug each of them.

DINNER IN THE COUNTRYSIDE
Last night we went out with Willy and Paskki to the countryside to dine at Alicia Maria, Willy
's sister home.
The rain had ended and we drove on the highway that circunvents Santiago.
After half an hour or so, we arrived at the countryside home.
It was a lovely place, surrounded by lemon and avocado trees.
The beautiful home was designed by Lucho, Willy's other brother.
We had a superb dinner, the family was super warm and kind.
Alicia Maria, her husband and her son Kike, welcomed us and made us feel at home.
We arrived home after midnight.
I am happy Pascale has such a nice new family.

Later we went back to her suite and watched videos in my laptop.
After we went down to the dinning room to have tea.
And my girlfriend Roxana picked me up and we went to dinner at a lovely place called
" El Reloj" and had some pisco sours to celebrate.
Seeing each other was so nice, laughing like old times when we were teens!
She drove me home around midnight.
Wonderful day!

SPENDING TIME WITH MOM
I took a taxi to my mom's apartment.
She lives in a senior only building.
When i got there she had spread over the bed all of her blouses for me to choose one to go with the new blue pantsuit I bought for Pascale's wedding.
I chose a golden one, it will look great against the dark blue pantsuit.
After we went down to the dinning room for tea time.
I met all of her girlfriends.
Later my sister Claire stopped by to visit and my future son in law picked me up, we came home waited for Pascale and then we went out to dinner to a Japanese restaurant to meet our friends Alfredo and Macarena.
We had a delicious dinner and celebrated with a bottle of champagne.
And came home after midnight.
