From Santiago we took a night bus south to Puerto Montt. From there we immediately got on a bus to the town of Castro, the capital of the island of Chiloe. We found a little place to stay, a bit overpriced for the lack of space and cleanliness. Dusty, Josh's buddy from college (the first years) has rejoined us for Patagonia. The three of us went to a schoperia- place that sells draft beer, and had hotdogs and beer for lunch in celebration of entering patagonia.
The island is famous for it's houses on stilts- palafitos, pictured here. We didn't actually see quite as many as I was expecting, but they still looked neat. The next couple of days we spent taking mini-buses around the island looking at the wooden churches.
