finally...

the last stop on our mini adventure was valparaiso. we took a bus from isla negra, which was somewhat stressful because there were about 8 of us who had ordered fresh empanadas and obviously the bus came before they were finished cooking :( but the trip ended well, as valpo is my favorite place in chile thus far. the city is all hills, and the streets are covered with creative artwork and bright colors. we went to a discoteca until 5ish in the morning, and had rented a room in a super cute hostel which was the cherry on top. i'm looking forward to going there again, and enjoying a stay at the beach in the future!
