Greetings from Puerto Natales

So, here I am in the Southern Hemisphere, typing away at a computer at one of the local internet cafes. Some of these places may not have running water but every small, shacky town has internet access. And this place in Chile only charges a dollar an hour! My trip has been quite amazing so far. The other day I did ice climbing for the first time ever. What better place to do it than in Patagonia, eh? I´m traveling with a group that includes a Californian, a Canadian, a Belgian, and a Scottsman. He wears his kilt quite often. But I´ll be honest with you, the next time I travel I'm wearing a kilt. Man that guy gets some action! Everyone goes up to talk to him and take his picture. He gets his picture taken more than the specific scenery that we are all suppose to be looking at! OK, my time is almost up. I´m telling everyone that I´m a Mormon missionary from Canada. That is just in case they hate Americans and I also heard that LDS missionaries are beloved in other countries. I forgot to bring my Book of Mormon, though. And I´m not dressed the part, nor on a bike, so I don´t know how convincing I am. Adios for now.
