Dreading the first 10 hour flight to my trip, I was pleasantly found with my own "private row of seats" on the flight! Complete with hot dinner, wine, a pillow, large fleece blanket, sleeping mask, and headphones, I was sitting pretty plush. But, just as I finished my dinner and was about to catch a few zzzz's the flight attendants decided to celebrate New Years on Chile time, since Santiago was my first destination. They all gathered in the back of the plane donned hats and noise makers and danced their way to the front! Everyone on the plane then started greeting the other passengers into the New Year
with a kiss on the cheek and the flight attendants supprised us all with a glass of champagne! Sometimes its the things you don't expect, that really make an ordinarily long boring flight on New Years Eve away from your friends exceptional! My next two flights went off without a hitch, or so I thought...When I arrived in Bariloche, I went to pick up my baggage at the claim to find out that my bags (with a long confusing mulit airport bagage tag) did not make it on the same flight as me :( Hopfully the airline will deliver it to my Hostel tonight.
So far the Hostel is great! Beautiful views and nice accommodations! The weather isn't great, but its supposed to improve the next few days!
