Babel Moment

Not quite a silent unseen bullet from an Algerian mountain top but that’s kind of what went through my mind as the window next to me disappeared and shards of glass filled my lap as we entered Santiago de Chile. Fortunately I wasn’t Brad Pit and Kate Winslet hadn’t just been shot and we weren’t in the film Babel. We were bombing along the motor way, the bus window had just disappeared like you see airplane windows disappear on the movies though and I was covered in nasty sharp glass. It was all quite dramatic.

It was kids and rocks taking pot shots at the tourists and the bus wasn’t stopping for anyone.

Apart from that, getting to Santiago was easy.
