FLYING TO CHILE
I went to Nipomo, to have dinner with my friends Olavi and Leo, his son Lee and their friend Richard.
We all helped with dinner, I made a salad of lettuce, tomatoes, hard boiled eggs, cucumbers, avocados and green onions.
They made a bbq of beef and chicken and we sat to a wonderful dinner. I went to bed early and in the morning they drove me to LAX
At the LAN Chile office they were so nice and very soon I was pushed in a wheel chair to customs. It was my first time thru the new full body scanner, and I passed with flying colors!!
The plane left on time and by 2 pm I was flying over the Pacific ocean on my way south.
I watched two movies, two comedies, Men who stared at goats and Its complicated.
After 9 hours of flying we landed in Lima, Peru.
We had a 25 minutes stop there and then continued the flight to Santiago, Chile.
And this morning at 6 am LAN Chile 601 landed in a light rain in Pudahuel.
I had the best attention from the LAN Chile crew, and again pushed in a wheelchair I picked my suitcases and met my Mom, Pascale and Willy.
They drove me to their apartment and we had a wonderful Chilean breakfast of tea, marraqueta bread, quesillo, tomatoes, avocados!!!
After that I went to bed with my mom and we took a long nap.
Later Pascale picked us up and we went to the beauty salon, and had a tint and cut, manicure all a gift from my daughter Paskki.
After we went to lunch at the Club Manquehue, where Willy met us and I had the best Churrasco sandwich ever!!!
Later Pascale and I took mom to her apartment and we drove to Pascale,s apartment where we are right now.
She is taking a nap on the couch, I am listening to the CNN CHILE and typing this.
Tomorrow I will go with my mom to the cementery to place flowers on my daddy mausoleum

GETTING READY FOR MY TRIP TO CHILE
Making my suitcases, buying little presents, paying bills.
Getting ready for my trip to Chile.
Tonight I will spend it at my friends Olavi and Leo's home in Nipomo.
So nice, they have offered to drive me to the airport in Los Angeles tomorrow.
I have decided to keep a trip journal, to share with all of you my adventures.
For now, back to fix the suitcases.

ONE WEEK WITH MY GRANDSONS
When my daughter Michelle asked me to come and take care of my grandsons for a week, I thought it would be difficult to do so and prepare my trip to Chile next week.
But it has been magical!
I sleep with my grandson Zachary and we talk in the dark before going to sleep...I tell him stories and to hear his innocent laugh it is magical...
Then in the morning I get him dressed, give him breakfast and drive him to school
The rest of the day I play with my grandson Joshua, and when he takes his nap, I go outside to the garden and I sit under the pine trees, thanking the universe for all these blessings.
Tomorrow is my last day here, I return to my house to get my stuff ready for my flight to Chile next Wednesday...going back to my land, to my people and celebrating with all of them.
It has been like a vacation spending time with my little ones.
