Quinta Normal

My class is wrapping up. Assuming I can pass the test, I will be on to more practice but probably no more new grammar. The rest of my trip will just be practice and trying to correct errors or things I forget.

This afternoon I went to the Quinta Normal Park near Gabriel and Juan Carlos's house (the guys I stayed with when I first got into town). The park was OK but very ordinary. It has several museums but they were all closed when I got there.

I also walked down to the Estacion Central train station (in the photos). It's a pretty dangerous neighborhood at night but seemed OK during the day and the architecture of the train station is cool.

After my walk I had beers with Gabriel and Juan Carlos and talked for a while with a new couchsurfer that's with them from Germany. He speaks great English and German but no Spanish. He's been travelling for months without being able to speak to most people in their native language...kind of crazy.

Alright, off to bed. I need to find time to study and meet up with Rodrigo and Gaby tomorrow.
