22 Days until Departure. Blogging tune-up

Continued quiet on the preparation front.  Jim is in town and we'll have dinner tonight and decide how do deal with the shipper's mistake.  The bikes will definitely not get there before us.

The bikes are scheduled to arrive in the Port of San Antonio on the same day we arrive at SCL airport in Santiago.  The port is about 2.5 hrs away from the airport. I'm leaning to going straight from the airport to the port and working to get the bikes as soon as possible.

The only thing to be sorted out in that event is storage of the crates.  Carlos has kindly offered to store the crates at his house, but that is about 3 hours away.  We may do better to find cheap or free storage in San Antonio.  If anyone has a connection in San Antonio, Chile and can help us out, we are all ears.

The bit about "blogging tune-up" is because this is the first blog post I am making using email.  This will simplify drafting posts when we don't have an internet connection.  Judging by the paucity of posts from the Polish rider I've been following, http://www.jantarek.com/, it can be difficult to find internet where we are going.

Change from one of the earlier posts, this is the jacket I'll be wearing (Thank, Renee!)
