Day 2 in Vina Del Mar

Our second day in we went to Vina Del Mar which is only a short bus ride from Valprasio. It was so fun to walk around the city and see the sites.

Valprasio is mostly built on a hill so there is lots of walking up and down hills


Fresh Fist anyone?

After walking around for a couple hours we worked up a big appetite and since it was a beautiful day we ordered a pizza from Telapizza and took it to the park for lunch.


One of the strangest things about Chile is that there are stray dogs every where. They are as friendly as can be, but very dirty. They followed us around all weekend.

Because we stayed in such a run down hostel on Wednesday night, Chase promised me a nice hotel for the second night. Before leaving Santiago, I did a little hotel research and fell in love with a boutique hotel call Casa Higueras. So we left the rest of the group and went and found the hotel in Valpraiso. I must admit that I have almost never been so excited to be some where!

Chase and I had a great time, we relaxed went to the swimming pool and hot tub, then went to a fantastic dinner at the hotel.



Chase and Merrill have drink on the patio before dinner. Chase a Pisco Sour the local chilean drink.

This was the best dinner we have had since we got to Chile
