Well we have spent a few days here in Valpa now and it has been great, went to Pablo Nerudas house (Chilean poet and eccentric) which was pretty crazy, full of insane things like a merry go round horse and stuffed penguins!
We also went on a day trip to a fishing village called Quintay which was great, walked through the forrest to a cove which was stunning but sadly it was a bit too cold for swimming. We saw a pelican down by the harbour there and ate lunch overlooking the sea.
There is also a dissused whaling station in Quintay which was sort of interesting but also a bit horrible! Lots of photos of dead whales! We climbed up to the lighthouse as well.
Off to Vicuna tonight so another 8 hour bus journey!
