Vina del Mar -- Dad Edition







After a solid 48 hours in Santiago, we headed off to Vina del Mar for a weekend of relaxation and gambling. If you are an avid follower of my blog (JOKING) then you know that Liz and I went to Vina del Mar with our moms as well. They told us they wanted "the experience" of staying in a hostel. After their first night, they had completely changed their minds. In order to avoid any possible hostel drama, Liz and I decided we should stay in one of Vina's best hotels. Best decision EVER.
Photo 1: Me in front of the Cap Ducal. Their motto: We're not near the ocean, we're ON the ocean.
Photo 2: The view from our room.
Photo 3: We started off our first full day in Vina del Mar with some 10am gambling. Dad and I won 2,370-- pesos. That's about $5. With that money, I bought a new pair of sunglasses.
Photo 4: A photo on our morning stroll. Our FIVE hour morning stroll. The beaches in Vina are absolutely beautiful. I am not actually complaining!
Photo 5: On one of the famous funiculars in Valparaiso.
Photo 6: Me and my host family. On my dad's final evening in Chile, he was able to meet my host family. Unfortunately, Diego wasn't around. Oh well, Dad will just have to come back to Santiago. Diego is that important.
