... a couple of hours to play some university sports. In the meantime though we got dropped at Central Market and got a ripper of a seafood platter from Galeon Restaurant, as recommended by our tour guide, Hugo.

... met een café erbij zodat de mensen hun boeken ter plekke kunnen lezen. We passeren verder een kunstcentrum dat ten tijde van Pinochet in beslag werd genomen om als regeringsgebouw te dienen aangezien ernaast het Ministerie van Defensie zit. Die laatste zit er nog steeds maar het kunstcentrum is inmiddels weer in ere hersteld. Uiteraard stoppen we ook bij het standbeeld van Salvador Allende op het Plaza de la Constitucion waar ook het huidige regeringsgebouw La Moneda zit en veel ...
