Los Andes, Chile

11 - 23 March

The road from Mendoza to Los Andes (a town close to the capital, Santiago)

"Welcome to the Republic of Chile"

Winding roads



Chile is very religious - there are statues of Virgin Mary everywhere

Fruit and veges are so good in Chile! The country is protected from pests by the Andes mountain range and the northern desert, so most produce is organic and delicious!
We definitely made up for starving the first few days in Buenos Aires...

The green fruit is called tuna, and its grown on a cactus!

One day we went horse riding, and were out for 5 or 6 hours!



Our lovely guide
Can you tell my horse was stubborn?




Old farming enclosure

Spot the creepy crawly

He's fast!

Oh, hes non-venemous? what a little cutie!
