Swimming, Pigging, and Watering

Santiago, Chile

While on vacation in Santiago, Chile Catherine and I took advantage of the cable cars (aka teleféricos) to get some great views of the city. Word to the wise: if you are afraid of heights you might want to skip the teleféricos and stick with a city bus tour.

...when the volcano blows

Most of the time the rain isn't so bad, although every once in a while a good drenching rainfall hits the city. This particular storm is a result of the volcano that erupted in Chile about 800 miles south of Asunción.
