Nov 23 Flight to Buenos Aires

 Most of the day was spent either preparing to leave or the flight to BA. I did get a good workout in. Tonight’s dinner was at Extrawurst, a German restaurant.Good but a lot of food and beer. Right now I am so tired I can hardly finish this. Good night.

Nov 28 Vina Del Mar

Image
  On our last day in Santiago, we visited the picturesque port of Valparaiso, founded in the 16 century with 43 hills that are reached by narrow, windy streets, staircases and a series of lifts (funiculars), a UNESCO World Heritage Site. We continue to Viña del Mar, known as the Garden City for its pretty parks and flower-lined streets. On the return to Santiago, we stopped at some of the beaches. For dinner we enjoyed a traditional Chilean dinner at a local restaurant and bid farewell to our tour.   Picturesque house on the water  Val Parisio was a city of murals Ants painted on the street led to this confectionery shop, a good marketing ploy.  50’s Coke advertising  Turn off your tv turn on life Dogs guarding a beautifully tiled staircase  Cat sunning on a car hood By the sea Cobblestones Weimar in training  City street’s  Murals everywhere  Monitor planters Old cables weren’t removed  Cevechie.  A slide beside a staircase

Nov 22 Happy Anniversary and More Falls

Image
Today we celebrated 37 years of marriage in Argentina by going to more falls. We didn’t get wet now that I was prepared. of course! I thought I had enough pictures of falls, but from another perspective I felt the need to take some more.  This blog inserts pictures with no particular order.  A park near our hotel that we stilled through before dinner.  A caiman alligator! A view from above Not bad after 37 years of marriage.  The butterflies enjoy the sweat on your skin The pictures don’t do these views justice.  This pretty one stayed with me for some time.  Some people took a boat ride in the water. No thanks.  Like I said, no particular order.  On the Argentina side it Igazu. On the Brazil side it is Igasu with an S! A Argentinian caiman lizard.

We also scoured some flea markets.  Beautiful modern buildings Old and new architecture  Funicular ride down Panoramic Views of Santiago  I hate the graffiti  This is where started for the Funicular ride up Couldn’t quite figure out that these statues were by our hotel , but we enjoyed them The financial district  Going down —Funicular ride down Saw lots of bikers You have to appreciate the old architecture  I like the pigeon sitting on the past President of Chile, but that’s just me.  A turret at the Funicular ride More views of Santiago with its 7 million people.  Another view of the city
