Mission: 7 summits in 365 days
Jan. 19, 2009
Aconcagua
Waking up on the bus and looking forward to about 8 more hours, I decided to look at music on my iPod which had about 12,000 songs on it. It then proceeded to blow up in my face, which bummed me out big time. So I listened to Spanish movies for the rest of the time. We arrived at the bus terminal, and one of Willie’s brothers was there to take a taxi with us, because he doesn’t have a car. It’s the thought that counts though right? Anyways, we arrived at Willie’s mom's house and I met her, what a nice old lady. She is from America, so she spoke English. That night we went to one of his other brother's house for a barbeque and I met most of the family. Dor his mom, Rafa his oldest brother, Alex a brother, Sophia his younger sister, and many other nieces and spouses and things. They are all really really nice and it was an awesome dinner--I felt right at home with them.
