So despite my sad news today I have to carry on so here’s some photos of Santiago. Firstly some of how the riots have left the city..








Think the bank is precautionary🤔
We went to the museum first..






Then we walked to the square…









Notice the reflection of the cathedral in the glass building😁

Think he’s the founder of the city of Santiago 🤔

This used to be a hotel but is now a museum and the Beatles stayed here whilst in Chile. ..
That’s them on the top of the building





Notice the shutters on the cathedral doors and windows


Bicycle store obviously🤣
I love a good sign..



So on green you can cross and as it counts down the green man runs quicker…
Then the red man appears!

We then drove through ground zero which has been totally destroyed by the riots….






Without minimising what happened with the rioting, which was horrible. I’m not sure what is just regular graffiti and what’s as a result of the riots 🤔
… to the tallest sky scraper in the south America’s, as pointed out in yesterday’s blog..

It’s 300 feet high. I keep meaning to Google what other building that’s equivalent to that you’d know..
And this is the view
Remember the coffee, tea and sugar canisters!








This is the closest you’re going to get to a bridge to date..

Some more sculpture!


Any ideas? 🤔
And the biggest crab ever ever

And what’s this all about?


Either that’s one that you stand on to go across on or the carriage has plummeted to the ground 🤔
I was joking about the Beatles statues by the way🤣
Off to eat now so may be back later

This was my food tonight and it was amazing. Italian obviously😁

So yesterday I sent this, above and today you have this…

I just think 30 mph or 30 kmh is very fast for a scooter to do, albeit one of the motorised ones that I’ve shown you before😂
So the tallest building is called Gran Torre Santiago at 300 metres and in comparison One World Trade Centre is 541 metres high and the Empire State Building is 431 so everything is still bigger in USA🤣

Alex kindly sent me the translation for the above sign, posted two days ago..

Okay dokey it’s been a long emotional and tiring day so I’m off to bed. It’s 8.01 pm 🤣.
Goodnight. Wine tasting tomorrow😫

So sorry to hear about Tiger, he was lucky to have had a lovely life with you.Sending hugs 😘💕xx
