Aren't we lucky
On the third day of our trip to Chile we started at dawn and hiked the right way up a mountain carrying all our camera gear. The views were breathtaking and we repeated our mutterings of the previous day. "Aren't we lucky etc etc". We laughed most of the day but I think that was largely due to lack of sleep. That night we gave Graham the room on his own so that everyone could get some rest.
On the final day we awoke to find that all the pipes were frozen so we couldn't wash or flush the toilet and we all began to really miss our hotel. Oh the glamour. It was freezing and we still had a few pieces to camera to record down by the lake. For continuity I had to wear the same thin shirt I'd been wearing in the sunshine the day before. It was freezing but when the sun rose over the mountains and bathed everything in sunshine it seemed worthwhile again and we were all ready for another 30 hours on planes.
