Today had warm weather and wind. We walked down several stairs to get down the hill. Once we met level ground we looked around for a place to get a bus that would take us to Vina del Mar. Soon the bus came. We sat down at teh end of the bus. The trip was 15 minutes or more, not that long. I was glad when we finally got off the bus. The Fonk museum that we were going to was pretty far becaouse we walked a lot to get there. We got to the bilding soon and walked up the front steps and into the museum. Downstairs was alot of things that were carved by men and women. There was a really good carved man that was naked and he had a smaller man next to him that was also naked.
Up stairs was nature life. Pretty insects were everywhere on the second floor, butiful colored beetles and butterflys hung every where. In the next room there was a two headed lamb that only lived one week. Other animals that were stuffed were in the room too. There was a black bear that was standing up and was growling so you could see it's teeth. In the last room there were shrunken human heads. The people would have war then they would take the people that they killed and chop off the head. Then they would take the toungh and the eyes out. Then they would fill the head with hot sand and hang it over the fire. Soon the head began to shrink intill it was the size of a grown up's fist. It was really weird.
Outside dad took our picture in front of this enormus head that was poking out of the grou
nd. It was from the island Rapa Nui that is in the Pacific Ocean next to Chile.
After that we walked toward the beach that was calld Playa El Sol (which means The Sun Beach). We walked a long way to the beach. Soon we got there and went to the bathroom to change. After that Dad wanted a umbrella to keep us in shade. When he walked off everybody else put on sunscreen. Finally Dad came back and he had to put on sunscreen. He told us where the place was and how much it cost, so we picked up our bags and headed in the direction.
Any way the waves were huge! They were so loud almost as loud as the water falls in Iguazu. Meghan and I couldn't wait to to get in the water. Finally we dove in it was freezing! I could only go down to my waist because the waves were two feet above my head. We had a lot of fun at the beach, I was very sad to leave. We took the bus back and ate pizza for dinner. When it was time to bed I looked at the ceiling feeling very sad that I had to leave Valpariso tomorrow.
