Greetings from Chile
Greetings from Chile where Ms. Bourgeois and I (Ms. Nipp) have spent the weekend. We had a wonderful time at our sister school in Lima, Peru last week and now we are here in Santiago, Chile preparing to visit our Chilean sister school. Yesterday was really cold and rainy (it was 37 degrees - 70 degrees colder than Dallas!). However, today was clear and cold and crisp - and completely beautiful! The Andes, which surround Santiago, are snow-covered and have offered us spectacular views all day - what a magnificent surprise! Our dear friends from Colegio Santa Ursula, Andrea Raczinski and Soledad Villarreal, accompanied us today as we attended Mass at the Ursuline school and then toured a bit of the city. It was a grand day and we can't wait to visit our sister school as well as the Ursuline school in Maipu tomorrow!

I miss Chili!!! Looking at these pictures brings back so many memories. I distinctly remember looking outside the classroom door and viewing the beautiful mountains in the distance. Looks like you are having a great time!
