How 'Bout Some Piggity-Pictures?

At long last, we've managed to hijack a camera and get some photographic record of our trip. If the beach scenes aren't enough to convince you we're actually still here, here's Erin in a crowd of 25 Chileno school children, all ages 8 to 9. If you look extra hard, you may even be able to spot me, in a Where's Waldo-esque hiding place. These kids were on vacation with their school and eating in the same restaurant as us for lunch one day. They apparently had never seen anyone who looked like us ever before (my blonde hair was extra-confusing), so they kept sneaking past out table and shouting, "Hello! Bye bye!" until Erin finally took pity and began talking to them. We were swarmed with questions for the rest of the meal, the most important of which were where we were from and what our favorite soccer teams are. For future reference, mine is Colo Colo and Erin's is U de Chile.

In this picture we pretend unsuccessfully to be surfers. Seriously, we were both rubbish. Erin did manage, however, to get us an invitation to some Chilean surfer's house (his name was Elvis, interestingly enough) for a party, but various medical problems and general lethargy kept us away. And, yes, I am completely naked under my wet suit. Enjoy.

Unfotunately, I lost both my legs that weekend...

...but grew them back in time for Erin to take a picture of me peeing in public.

And finally, a lovely view of the ocean, horribly ruined by some stupid girl.
