A New City

Concepción looks nothing like Santiago. Or La Serena. Of course, I haven't seen much if it yet. It turns out our hotel is not, in fact, close to the city centre as I previously thought. Rather, it is close to the airport, and directly off the highway, which means nothing is within walking distance. 

The good news is that the hotel seems very nice, with a restaurant on site and breakfast included. And it wasn't too expensive.

The better news is that they have a hotel shuttle that can take us to nearby places like the mall, the beach, and the centre of town.

Looking forward to see what this place is like in the coming days. For now, here is a view from our hotel window.
