After 6 1/2 years, I am finally going back to visit Chile and the people I met there. This is a dream come true, and it is finally starting to feel real. I have been reading in Spanish about 30 minutes each day for a couple of months now, and Mandee gave me a CD with Spanish conversations that I listened to on the way to work. I hope its like riding a bike; Mandee's not worried - and she doesn't even speak Spanish!
We've heard back from a few people I met during my second year, and my trainer, who was from Santiago, has also given us his contact info so we can get together.
I can't wait to eat the food. I put on 20-25 lbs there, so I'm already recalling favorite ice cream shops, hot dog stands, "doughnut" places and other fine delicacies. Wow! Anyway, we'll take pictures since I didn't as a missionary and make some posts.
