Hiya,

Back in Santiago from Pucon on Sunday morning, on Sunday afternoon again in the bus to Valparaiso on the coast, 1h30 far from Santiago. Thank you Laurent for your hospitality! Sunday in Valparaiso is quiet as a Sunday, but weird enough for a Chile-Brazil Football day… actually I got an explanation from Chilean people: they had casi no chance to win so no need to jump in the street, and no surprise indeed.

On Monday morning, we went surfboarding in Con Con, 45 min North from Valparaiso.Renato drove us to a special beach with special "beginners' waves", that was just peeerfect. Spéciale dédicace à Matt et Riton héhé, I think Croyde's water is warm!!!! Wouhou with a simple 3-2 wet suit I really should have put some empanadas in between… but it was fine in the end with the sun and palm trees.

Monday afternoon Laurent guided me in the small coloured weird funny streets of Valparaiso, don't worry I got some pics for you!!

Then back to Santiago on Monday night for the weekly worldparty at Julie's.

On Wednesday Chilean football proud was back in the street with a great Chile-Columbia 4-0 match!

And yesterday September 11th, anniversary of Allende's suicide, terrorists were out in the street on fire.
