Cockadoodledoo!

If you think it is enchanting to be awakened by a rooster crowing, Chile isn't for you. If you can sleep THROUGH a rooster crowing, come on down! I'm serious. Between the roosters and dogs and the occasional duck, I haven't had a decent night's sleep since I left Santiago.

Some of you would say, ¨Jen, you are such a baby. You have such sensitive ears. Suck it up and sleep.¨ To you, I say ¨Cockadoodledoo!¨ And I'll keep on saying it outside your window... all night.

...And turn the air conditioning down to 40 degrees in your bedroom.

Jen, I'm feeling you on the rooster, though the one outside my bedroom is polite enough to wait until 5:30 in the morning to begin. It's the terrible, terrible cold that keeps me awake and our poor dog Ophelia who howls her lonliness and discomfort all night long.

Jen, your descriptions are great. They really help me see what it's like to be there, and make me glad I'm not! Keep up the great work. Just think of all the cool stories and photos you have for the kids next year.
