i took a caribe tour (from POP), got off on a stop close to jumbo. i figured out before that ruta A runs just next to it so after visiting jumbo i caught A towards the city centre, making sure he will be passing close to el encanto. mind you, normally i get off at a main stop and take A from there.
to my surprise my A did not pass metro but turned into the maze of streets. i was getting a little confused until we reached la sirena/la opera and i got out (i don't know santiago all that well). i did my shopping and figured out that maybe A goes through the city and THEN towards metro so i got another car - no metro again, he left me next to caribe tours (close to jumbo).
now i am confused. is ruta A so complicated or is there two rutas? no point in asking minovio's friends in santiago, they all have cars and asked for directions they always say: "oh, it''s so far and so complicated". i stopped trusting them when i was told centro leon is "very far" from metro and i "need to take a taxi". it turns out it's a darn walking distance and A goes there too!
