To start off i will take you all on a little journey back to last weekend, where i have to admit i was a bit of an Gringo (American) on Saturday. It was the beginning of college football season and i was craving some good old American fries. Brian, my roomate, was leading the cheers during the Notre Dame San-Diego State game, (which Notre Dame struggled with winning). But we ate at this pretty decent little American Sports Bar in Santiago. It is called Basic Bar(shameless plug, but i told the guy i would spread the word, plus this is acutally howi found out about it in the first place) and is run by a couple of Americans guys and is basically the only public place in Chile that you can watch American college football. The food was good and there were surprisingly quite a few people at the place to watch the game. After that we went over to the ChACEr´s house and had a lovely little BBQ. One filled with all food groups; beef, pork and chicken. So, needless to say it was delicious. We decided to have more of a quiet night and so we watched Machuca, which is a very good Chilean film about the differences between rich and poor in Chile during the military take over. It is based at St. Patrick´s which is a representation of St. George´s, the other Holy Cross school here in Chile. I recommend it to anyone who has a little bit off time.
Also this weekend we went to the market as usual and stocked up on food for the week. Then on Sunday we stayed in and caught up on a bunch of our house chores and got ready for the upcoming week.
