Día Ocho

Dogs, tours and more dogs


One week in Chile has passed!!

We started with a morning tour around Valparaiso, giving us more of an insight into the city and also allowed us to see some more incredible art on the buildings. Every turn, wall and stairs have some sort of art painted onto them, everywhere you look you see something completely different, each with their own meanings. Whether these be political, protesting or just the local lingo.



Although this tour was very strange, the tour guide had about 7 stray dogs following him around the tour...made for some interesting entertainment.


This tour was fascinating and really worked up our appetites! TIME FOR LUNCH! As Valparaiso is located by the sea and was known primarily as a fishing city we thought we should have some fish. Heading back from docks we stumbled across a restaurant and not knowing anything about it we went in and sat down for lunch. Not knowing what we had ordered to eat we were eager to get stuck in when it arrived. OH MY! This lunch was absolutely amazing!


Being well and truly stuffed we set off for some shopping in the markets. after this we headed back to the hostel ready to get on a coach back to Santiago.


Valparaiso was a lovely weekend away and we've now got the bug to go and book more weekends away.
