While the US
news was buzzing about the election of Supreme Court Justice Sotamayor, we passed by a plaza called Sotamayor.
Pablo Neruda was a famous leader in Chilean history. Here is one of his
houses.
There were intricately-designed homes speckled throughout the hillside.
Every home had a splash of color.
The old, abandoned, graffiti’d buildings

The streets were an outdoor art museum.
Carmel makes a
new friend.
Josh makes a new friend.
Next, we made it over to the decadent town of Viña del Mar.
A casino with palm trees can be seen in the background.
Ice cream by the boardwalk.
A look out to the sea.
We had a yummy meal overlooking the water.
These guys ensure that Nemo does not illegally
enter Chile.
A nearby castle.
Another castle.
Castle view.
Ciao!
