Los Dominicos

There is the most amazing shopping area at the end of the Red Line on the subway. All of the shops are filled with only handmade Chilean things, and it is truly a wonder the things these craftsmen have created. I will post pictures another time, but if anyone comes, we will definitely be going to Los Dominicos. To get there a group of us boarded the subway, and sat down to have a nice ride. We were half way there and noticed that all of the people got off the entire subway about 2 stops from Los Dominicos. Well, we thought, we'll have the subway all to ourselves! How strange. The doors don't close. A subway employee comes to us and rattles off a BUNCH of Spanish, and we just smile and say, "Los Dominicos". He rattles off more Spanish and we just look at each other as if to say "What?" He finally makes a grand sweeping motion with his arms and say, in his BEST English, "Off!". We then figure out that this subway was being taken offline, and he was desperate to get us to disembark. I'm sure he was thinking "Stupid Americans!"
