A nice day for a mate

You can take a gringo out of Argentina, but can you ever really take Argentina out of a gringo?

more chile photos

Dan: Here's another set of pics taken on my way from the south of Chile to Santiago.


Volcan Osorno and Lago Llanquihue from the town of Llanquihue.














Saltos de Petrohue. This may be the bluest river I've ever seen. Not pictured are the 300 tourists also taking pictures.













One of my companions at the top of Volcan Villarica.














Castillo Mancera, one of the Spanish forts around the bay near Valdivia. I love photoshop.














From the Cementerio General in Santiago.




















These girls are just plain cute, don't you think? Maybe a little young for the coy pose though. Vale is my friend Sergio's niece and Kika is her cousin, I think.

















Street art in Santiago. This is the best spray paint stencil I saw, and the placement in the corner between buildings was perfect.

















Outside an office building near La Moneda in Santiago.














Jerky salesman and used clothing vendor in Pudahuel, Santiago suburb.














Intimate clothing for sale on the street in Pudahuel. I had a lot of time to take artsy pictures while killing time, waiting for my perpetually late friend.

Here are some pictures taken by either Sergio or me, that I think are cool, from the south of Chile.


I'm not sure why, but there is a lighthouse near the center of Coyhaique, Chile, 50 km from the coast.




















The Hospital in Coyhaique.














The cemetery in Coyhaique. People always thought we were weird for touring cemeteries, but they are peaceful, usually shady and make for some nice pics.












Cascada de la Virgen, between Coyhaique and Puerto Aisen.




















We ran into these fellas walking back from an overnight camping trip near Puerto Aisen.














This one is just across the border, in Argentina. When the truck broke down with 10 passengers, we spent the night in Rio Mayo, national capital of sheep-shearing. Too bad we broke down just a week before their festival. http://ohbrotherwhereami.blogspot.com/2008/01/festival-nacional-de-la-esquila.html


Isla Achao, near Chiloe Island.
















Palafitos, or stilts holding up houses in Castro, Chiloe. I got my shoes muddy for this shot.
