Spring in Santiago0
After a long grey winter, the sun is out and the temperature is finally rising here in Santiago. Yesterday Ashley and climbed up Cerro San Cristobal, the urban “hill park” here in the city and got some expansive views of the surrounding metropolis and mountains. The snow on the Andes is rapidly disappearing as daytime temperatures reach the mid to late 20s. With the temperature rising the smog is beginning to dissipate, though you can still see it in the photo. Our apartment is about a third of the way in from the left, at the left side of the green patch.
