Panic attack at 11m

So yesterday we go up early for a dive at Terrigal, on the New South Wales central coast. I was feeling a tiny bit nervous because of the dive I had to abort in Chile because I couldn't equalise, but otherwise I wasn't thinking much. We got to Terrigal, signed our release forms, set up our gear and headed out on a bumpy boat ride to a "reef" (not a great barrier reef style thing, more of rocks with kelp). I had taken antihistamines and used an antihistamine nasal spray to make sure all my mucous membranes were nice and shrunken to help with equalisation.

Quick Queensland trip

On Friday we headed towards Queensland to meet our new little nephew and catch up with both of our families for the first time after South America. On the way we stayed overnight with our friends at Inverell and had some fun playing with some new puppies.

A final Post: Santiago

So it's over and we are back. Back to work, back to life. Back to normalcy. Unfortunately things didn't go that smoothly this morning. After celebrating that our car batteries were not flat yesterday, Brandon promptly (and accidentally) left my headlights on overnight. Stress and calling road side assist ensued. I eventually got to work.

I realised too late that I had forgotten to cover our first few days in Santiago, so I will do them all in this post.
