photo post

Last weekend our group went a trip to areas within an hour of Valparais0--it was a great day! Gourmet chocolate, beautiful pottery, and the other Pablo Neruda's house!


It was a cloudy day but it almost seemed all the colors were even brighter--really beautiful grounds. But inside! No pics allowed--but it is just jam packed with trinkets and statues. It's supposed to resemble a boat. I hope one day I might get away with having a house filled with weird random things.


Another, closer view of his house. Mosaic fish. So cool.


This is in Pomaire, a small town known for its artesan pottery and goods, as well as for their empanadas! It was really good. We also tried Chicha--a traditional liquor from grapes. yum.


This in no way represents all the gorgeous pottery, but it is pottery. For some reason I didn't think to take pictures of all the more traditional pottery. This photo, is for Roxanne. Rox, this country is filled with ms. kitty!!


We went to this small business in Curacaví. Gourmet chocolate! It's really successful, there's a shop in New York City. Delicious delicious delicious. Brunnato Cioccolato.
