Surprise #1 - equipment lost in flight

I arrived 1.30am in Santiago. The big backpack didnt make it - hooray. This means, all I have left is a down jacket, my mitts, a sleeping bag and my boots, plus sunglasses and googles.
Seems it only comes tomorrow afternoon to Mendoza = after we have left to Penitentes.
So, today will be "shopping day" to re-equip myself. No problems, just solutions .... I hope.

Cheers from Santiago Airport (off to Mendoza)
