The day was a long one and the exhaustion caught up with us all about halfway through. We had been on the bus travelling from the monastery to the graduate and undergraduate architecture schools here in Chile. Then we had dinner at Mestizo, enjoying a delicious lunch of salmon with flan for dessert, followed by a walk through Bicentennial park where we fed the birds and enjoyed a walk. Following the events on our itinerary, we managed a group visit to Costanera tower. The whole group made their way to the 62nd floor of the building for a breathtaking view of all of Santiago. My friends and I took our time making our way around the building to see all of the angles. After we gad a small rest, we went to the elevator and took the elevator down to the 5th floor. We explored the next 4 floors down the mall beneath, comparing the stores to those we have back home and enjoying the Chilean culture we could observe. We did this for about the next 3 hours and managed to find out way back to the hotel. We then went to dinner at Ekika Ilmenau across the street. We got some Chilean style burgers and fries and enjoyed a few hours together.
