After Buenos Aires we spent a wonderful 2 days in Mendoza.
This city is full of bodegas or wineries.
We rented bikes for a day and rode under rows of trees.
It was beautiful-
We then got to Chile and stayed with 2 friends of Kevinś sister.
Whom we met in Buenos Aires!
We got to see Vina Del Mar which is a resort town right on the beach and their apartment had an INCREDIBLE ocean view.
We took a day trip to Valparaiso and this was another town FULL of culture and art on the walls. I got to visit Pablo Nerudaś house which is now a museum. That was ẗruly magical as my cousin Lily phrased it-
It was a friends birthday so we then were able to spend one full day at the beach called Maintencillo which was very similar to San Diego La Jolla or Del Mar type beaches....beautiful weather but not crowded AT ALL. The only problem was the water was 2 degrees or something crazy- Perfect for sunbathing and barbeques!
From Vina Del mar we took a 26 hour bus to Buenos Aires then a 3 hour ferry (i like to call titanic) because it was the nicest ferry boat id ever been on with 3 floors a bar on each deck a casino ...arcade ...cafeteria...and more!!! so the ferry dropped us off at Colonia, Uruguay and we spent 4 hours here exploring this incredibly historic feeling old town.
Then that evening a bus to MOntevideo and now a bus to Punto del Diablo to lounge on the beach!!
movin quick.
The more time we take here the less time in Brazil and I cant WAIT to get to Brazil!
woot!
