Some Notes from Chile

I wasn’t in Chile for too long, but here were a few notes from places I went.

• Went to Santiago, Chile
• Walked around some of the historic central area, got a bit of a mini-tour from someone who lived there.
• Went to Domino for lunch — seems it was a classic old-time Chile hot dog place. I did not realize hot dogs were so common in Chile. There were a few areas I walked through with many casual hot dog places one right after the other.

• Mercado Central and stop by Emporio Zunino for empanadas

• San Crisotobal Hill, a nice view of the city

• Up the funicular to San Cristobal Hill, then continue to the gondola
• Go up the tall Costanera Tower for high up city views
