After a while the terramotos began to take hold, I was starting to feel quite drunk, well not drunk exactly more relaxed and confident. A busker with a guitar came in and started singing, playing songs for people to sing and generally livened the mood in there to almost party standards, most of the people were drunk on terramotos by now so it was clear to see why. We ended up staying for quite a while and got chatting and dancing with different groups of people, all in the restaurant bit. We had some photos, sang happy birthday to a boy next to us who had just turned eighteen, and had a good time. We left to meet someone else at a nearby bar called California Bar, it had the Californian flag on the wall, had other U.S paraphernalia everywhere, the toilet wall was completely covered in posters and photographs. It was a trendy bar but probably aimed more at American tourists, it was quite expensive so we only stayed for one. We didn't want the night to end so soon but didn't really want to pay a premium to get into a club so some of us called around to find out if any parties were going on. We found one and immediately left to got to it. When we arrived we strolled in but were shortly kicked out, even though one of us was invited, and I say kicked out more like asked politely to leave. They asked politely but the way they went about it got me and the rest very angry, they got these little boys, maybe around sixteen or something to stand up to us and make sure we didn't kick up a fuss. There was no point it would be like striking a child and wouldn't get us anywhere, just make us look like thuggish fools so we left without fuss.
We had another party lined up in case and headed towards that, it was in Vitacura so wasn't too far from where I was staying and some of us lived. Sam was supposed to be busy during the evening and at night so I went to meet up with my friends on my own.
On the way to the party we stopped off at a bottelleria to get some pisco and lemon soda, they didn't have limon soda so we had to settle with sprite but it wasn't as nice. We got to the party, don't know how long we stayed for, must have been quite a while but I lost track of time after my third terramoto. The person apartment was near the top floor of a tower block and it had a pretty good view of Vitacura, I have now seen Providencia at night from high up and Vitacura, there is something about Santiago but I think it looks better at night with all the lights on.
