South America - Chile - Horcon - SA4: Mendoza, Valparaiso, Horcón, Santiago

Horcon They used horses to pull the fishing boats off the beach and into the water. There were lots of pelicans around. |
 |
At the winery, Mendoza These giant wine barrels were just for decoration, but they did smell like wine... |
 |
The bug in Valparaiso How did it get there? |

For crushing grapes. Yes, that is the whole skin of a cow from the 1600s. |
 |
The wine tasting room. They don't let you taste the real wine. They have a special one for tourists, and i think it must be made out of the left over grape stems. |

Cute cottages on the water. Really, it was much like the gulf islands. More stray dogs though i guess. |

Elevator to nowhere People in the fancy condos can actually take an elevator to the beach! This wasn't the only one we saw. |
