Super Santiago Segways

My beloved flatmate Holly and I once went to Lille and enjoyed a rare old caper, riding around the city on one of God´s most inventive of vehicular creations, The Segway. Somebody in the Santiago Tourist Information Marketing Department clearly had an epiphany and thought this the ideal mode of transport for conveying essential facts to gormless gringos. How right they were! The chap in the foreground noticed me trying to take a discreet photo, promptly approached us and filled us in mainly on the best places to get pissed. True, he did mention something about a cathedral or something, but by that point we´d both switched off. Thanks a lot, Ask Me man!

  1. What a pity he didn't let you have a go. Didn't you show him your Segway license? Oh well. At least if you run out of money, you'll know what job you can go for...there can't be that many license holders out there ;-)
