Pierre and I took off on our adventure early this morning. We traveled from Washington, D.C. to Panama City where we had a short layover, before flying to our final destination—Santiago, Chile. We flew business class on both legs on Copa Airlines, which made the trip super comfortable and relaxing.
This is a new country and hemisphere for both of us, so of course, we’re excited! We came down to see the full solar eclipse which is happening on Tuesday. This is another first for me, and it will be the second viewing for Pierre. He saw his first full solar eclipse from Sweetwater, Tennessee in 2017.
Leaving Panama… 
Crossing the Equator…
I can’t wait to see pictures and hear about all of your adventures on this amazing trip!
We’ve had really shaky internet connection, but we’re having a blast! Keep reading!
All of this is very interesting, especially the parts about trying to convey ideas and messages in a foreign language. I hope you and Pete have a great trip, and I will continue to follow your journey.
Thanks, Tom! We’re having a great time–the eclipse was amazing!
Glad I caught this! Almost missed it!
