Sorry for our lapse in communication. We had a very busy final week in Santiago plus we both came down with a bad cold and took 3-4 days to recover. Here are some pics from our final weekend in Chile.
Valparaiso is a very colorful place. It was a lot of fun to explore this port town and Vina del Mar, a neighboring town. We spent our last weekend in Chile on the Pacific coast and got plenty of sun.
One of the Valparaiso locals suggested we try out this restaurant and even suggested what to order - ceviche. It was delicious. You knew we had to throw in a food picture on this post. And yes, that is a sweet potato with the ceviche.
The power of the Pacific. We wanted to touch the water of the Pacific for the first time in either of our lives, but while walking down the sidewalk next to these rocks, it touched us first. The coast wasn´t all rocks; there is a very pretty sandy beach just a mile or so up the coast from here (see below pic).
Clay´s sand sculpting skills have improved drastically since his early days in the sand box (sorry, no photo available for comparison). Just for the record, he no longer sculpts sand in his underwear; he gave that up around age 10, thankfully.
Of all the crashing waves photos we took, we couldn´t manage to get crashing waves in the only photo we have with both of us in it (jagged rock isn´t the greatest surface to place a camera for a timed photo).
