Internet Cafe - Concepción

You might have heard me mention "internet cafes" in other posts or have heard the term around somewhere. Currently Paula and I are sitting in the Cyber Club in Concepción (here's a picture of Paula pounding the keyboard) after arriving here at 6am this morning on the overnight bus from Puerto Montt. Concepción is a little more than halfway back to Viña del Mar from Puerto Montt - Chile is a very looooooonnnnngggg country and traveling from the south to the north takes a lot of time.

The Cyber Club has about 20 computers with very fast connections separated into small cubicles that they rent for about 75 cents per hour. I'm not sure about the "cafe" part of the deal because there's nothing that looks like food or drink available...

The bus trip was relatively comfortable. We paid extra for a Salon Cama bus - kind of a sleeper coach with just 24 seats instead of the usual 46 and they recline back 65 degrees (clicking on "cama" on this page http://www.turbus.com/html/servicios.html will give you an idea of the seats). But we're still a bit groggy this morning. Tonight we're taking the regular overnight bus back to Viña del Mar so we'll have something to compare the cama (which translates to "bed" in English) seats with. It might be a very long night tonight as the bus doesn't leave until 11:50 pm and gets to Viña around 8am tomorrow morning...
