After the stunning ride through the Andes mountains from Chile to Argentina we make it to Mendoza in Argentina just on the other side of the mountain. The sun is out, beautiful day, and somehow I'm still walking in the shade everywhere in this Argentine city! So many tall trees casting shade over all the streets and on both sides. This is the greenest city I have ever seen. Mendoza is famous for its wine, specifically Malbec, but nobody told me about all the trees! Real pleasure to walk around this city and do a sightseeing tour. In the shade, and do I need it after a long night of Argentinian asado and wine catching up with friends who just came back from Tierra del Fuego. Walk around the huge General San Martin park. Travel to Cerro de la Gloria on the motorcycle at the end of the day. Once at the top the police officer told us we had one minute for pictures and then had to leave since the place was closed. So the Mendoza region is the main wine region in South America but since I have limited time my focus was on nature in the city.

By popular demand ever since the comments went Spanish the Chileans have asked me to travel there so this is a tour of Viña del Mar Chile. The Chilean city on the coast only a kilometer north from Valparaiso compact enough to walk around and see most of the city in a day. Within an hour I can tell why so many people love Vina del Mar and understand the appeal of this clean city on the sea shore. We walk to the corner of the city with the castle and the Vina clock made of flowers also called the reloj de flores. After we move to the city centre with green park and then walk back to the beach where the jetty with the crane is. Just before sunset I head up to the viewpoint on the motorcycle to watch the sunset behind Viña del Mar. The sky turns orange on the waterfront of this Chilean city on the coast and the sun sets behind Valparaiso. Damaged the bike a bit while riding off with the disk lock still on but other than that it was a great day sightseeing in Viña and I can imagine that life in this city can be good. Though traffic was absolute murder in the evening.

NOTE: This took place a week and a half before the last Chilean election video.
MERRY CHRISTMAS/FELIZ NAVIDAD!
A Chilean took my motorcycle! Jorge flew over from New Zealand to Chile for a family affair and needed a motorcycle for the week. Alp volunteered for the ride down south and is actually going to see that part of Chile before me. That leaves me without a ride but we are going down south also to Concepcion Chile in the Bio Bio region for a few days. There the family shows me around the region of Conception like Las Tetas del Bio Bio, which literally means the tits of Bio Bio. And the little fishermans town Caleta Tumbes. Beautiful little bay with many colorful fishing boats floating around. So many stands with delicious seafood like crabs and mussels on the side of the road. We take the last boat tour of the day and follow the Tumbes coastal line for a bit and learn about the 2010 Tsunami that followed the earthquake back then. Caleta Tumbes is well worth a visit when in Conception. Check it out! A week later Jorge comes back with my motorcycle and he went back to New Zealand. It was great to see him again, especially in his native country Chile.

SURPRISE SIGHTSEEING IN SANTIAGO CHILE, CHILEAN CAPITAL

Today while standing on the balcony looking down over Plaza de Armas in Santiago de Chile city, I felt inspired to go see beautiful things. Had my sights set on the Pablo Neruda museum which turned out to be closed for the day. Wasn't an art museum anyway, just one of his former homes in the Chilean capital. Ended up doing some sightseeing in Santiago city centre which turned out to be beautiful in itself. Great day walking around Santiago Chile in the sun meeting all sorts of people finding more than a few interesting places. The small, intimate park Cerro Santa Lucia with the all round view of the city impressed me the most. Has the tomb of Benjamin Vicuna Mackena at the top. Something very South American about it which has a literary tradition in magical realism. Nice day spent sightseeing and walking around the capital of Chile. A Lot going on on the streets and there is always something to see when traveling in Santiago, go visit this Chilean city!

We have been with the motorcycles in Valparaiso Chile for two weeks now and is time to have a proper walk around this Chilean city. We go sightseeing and hope to discover the narrow streets and stairways. Early on Jim spots a big inflatable yellow rubber duck on the other side of the Valparaiso port. The mission soon enough becomes to see it up close. We walk from the northern to the southern part of Valparaiso and the style of the city is always changing. Especially when you get further south and go up the hills you stumble on the historical parts of the city. The colorful stairs, the streets, the street art graffiti, the elevator funicular in all shapes and sizes. Walk in Valparaiso and you'll notice how it is unlike any other city you've been before and is well worth a trip visit when in Chile as the cultural capital of the country. Completely different from Vina del Mar which is only a kilometer up the road and is a lot wealthier and more modern. In the end we make it to the giant rubber duck in the harbour. The duck is massive and floating around, chilling. Also known as pato de hule over here.
