I got back yesterday and the airport scene was a mess. The runway is functioning, but the airport is not so we landed, got off the plane, and waited on the ground for our baggage which was just a free for all once off the plane. It was insane. We took a bus into the center of town and went a very strange way because the normal road is too damaged to drive on. It was quite a scene.
I am back at Marilyn's house and so far have experienced three quite strong aftershocks that last between 10 seconds and 1 minute. It is pretty crazy. The apartment has quite a bit of damage, but it's standing.
I would recommend hiring Chilean architects next time you build a house, these buildings are meant to last.
I am off to get my Visa figured out and to explore the city. I have so much to tell you it's hard to know where to start!
Ciao.
