yeah so we are still having internet problems and it seems the best way to use the internet is to go to mcdonalds. so thats where im at right now because we got back earlier tonight than most nights. lets see, yesterday we went to our first company visit at codelco. it was pretty cool but it was a good lil drive away. lets see then we had another lecture at the school. mimo made it great as usual. then we went to a soccer game. the soccer game was really intense and totally different than any soccer game in the united states. the people are really into it. then today we had two company visits, one of which was mine. first we went to vina indomita which was my group's company. it was awesome. it was very pretty and everything. the lady who gave us the tour was very smart and good at speaking english. we then had lunch at a traditional chilean restuarant. it was pretty good. i think i literally ate a whole chicken though. lets see then after lunch we went to the next company visit which was lan airlines. it was pretty cool to see the big planes and see them doing the modifications to the wings. and now here i am!

btw, i think im pretty much the worse person to operate the showers at the hotel because last night when i was trying to take a shower i couldnt get the water at the perfect temperature. first it was smoldering hot and then brendan came in and turned it way up but then that just made it flood again. so then because i couldnt actually get under the smoldering hot water i decided to turn the cold on too but that turned all the water off somehow. it was at this point that i decided to just take a cold shower. i had goosebumps for the whole 5 minutes i was in there and about 30 minutes after it. it was terrible.

tomorrow is the day at the farm! yay! a day of relaxation... and its viernes!
