"Drat. Not enough people signed up for the Santiago trip, so that one was cancelled. Horseback riding and wine tasting seem to be a lot more popular. I'm going to look into going on my own to Santiago by bus. If it's anything like Ecuador, there'll be a bajillion buses going back and forth - so many as to make it confusing.
"Continued cool and cloudy, although the clouds seem to be breaking up late this afternoon and there are pieces of blue sky. We've cut in rather close to shore, and I can see very vague hints of mountains to the east. We're now pretty much straight south of Boston. So not only have we traveled this far south, we've also traveled east the width of the U.S. We had another time change last night and are now 3 hours ahead of CA.
"I'm giving a midterm (already written) in one class tomorrow, and I've cancelled astonomy for tomorrow (to great cheers) since we've actually managed to get a day ahead of schedule. So I'm pretty much caught up with things until we depart Valparaiso next Thursday. We've got about a 10 day stretch at sea from Valparaiso back to our stop at Cocos Island."
