Today
So at 530 am I heard a man yelling outside our window, santiago!!! santiago!!! And then knocking on the front door. Th unfortunate thing about our hostel was that our door was right in front, on the street, next to the front door, so we heard everyone coming and going from the hostel, and everyone who was walking and talking outside on the street.

Amazon, day 3
We got up at about 7 am and headed down to breakfast.
