Hotel Jose Nogueira was our home in Punta Arenas. This is a photo of the dining room. The hotel was originally called Palacio Sara Braun. Much history of the area was made within the walls of this hotel through the golden years of Punta Arenas prior to the Panama Canal. This was our hotel where we stayed.

We visit a working estancia today for lunch. We are in for a treat Patagonian Lamb.

The lamb was so good. I went back for thirds.

City of Valparaiso across the bay

Valparaíso played an important geopolitical role in the second half of the 19th century, when the city served as a major stopover for ships traveling between the Atlantic and Pacific oceans by crossing the Straits of Magellan. Valparaíso mushroomed during its golden age, as a magnet for European immigrants, when the city was known by international sailors as "Little San Francisco" and "The Jewel of the Pacific".In 2003, the historic quarter of Valparaíso was declared a United Nations Educational, Scientific, and Cultural Organization (UNESCO) World Heritage Site.
