The next morning Sam was supposed to go into university but he said he had received a message from his teacher saying that they would not be in and there would be no classes for the day. This gave him the whole day to be free. We pretty much lingered around not really doing much until his friend phoned up and asked if we wanted to go to the park and have a few beers. A while later we were picked up, went to the park spent a while sitting around around chatting then went for a walk in the parks rose garden. There was a small flower garden at the end of the park and it contained hundreds of different kinds of roses, from small pretty shameful looking ones to huge, bright and bold ones that could be seen a mile off. Personally I'm not the biggest fan of roses but it was a refreshing change from all the heat, sun and smog. That evening I was due to meet some of the friends I had made in Valdivia, they had arranged to meet at a bar on Pio Nono in Bellavista, the bar happened to be right next to a hot dog place where I occasionally go to get some cheap completos. We were supposed to meet at 19.00 which was quite early for a night out and myself, Sam and two of his mates were having a good time in the park. We left the beauty and relative comfort of the park to go to the dirty and scum ridden Pio Nono to meet my friends. When we got there the turn out was a little less than I had expected, for some reason I thought that nearly everybody from Valdivia would be there, not just a few, well about six to be precise. I caught up with them, sat down with Sam's mates at the end of the table, ate my gigante completos and had some beer. Sam and his mates were ripped off by the people in the bar, they ordered a litre of Cristal, the crappy cheap beer for $1600 pesos but when they were given the bill it ended up costing $2600 pesos which is ridiculous as its on of the worst beers available. Myself on the other hand copied the rest and ordered a litre of Brahma extra and that was only $2000 pesos and was a beer that was a million times better. Didn't stay for too long, it was getting cold and I only had a shorts and t-shirt on, Sam and his mates wanted to leave and I went with them as I felt obliged as I was staying at Sam's after all and it would have been rude for me to stay and go back to his drunk and much later.
