The Araucania Tree
Only in Chile and Dr. Seuss books.

This is one of many murals throughout Valparaiso. It is really lovely and intricate. This one is my favorite, it is hard to see. Blame me, not the artist.

I spent some time in the cemetery in Valparaiso because it is awesome. They have two, one for Catholics, with a gorgeous view of the ocean and huge lots and one for nonbelievers that is not quite as picturesque. This is a picture of one of the walkways lined with graves, it is really quite spooky.

This was in the National Naval Museum. I don't understand why they tried to hide their cannon as a bird. They must be very clever, just like me in this picture.
A sidenote, featured in this museum was a glass window of Neal Armstrong, Chile is funny.
