Valparaiso & Viña del Mar

Day two of the Beckham adventure took us to Viña del Mar and Valparaiso. Viña is really not much more than a beach town. We toured the large amphitheater there and walked along the beach to see the sea lions perched above a large rock for a bit before heading to the historical center of Valparaiso.

Our guide, Manuel, showed us the old buildings and what makes the city a UNESCO world heritage site. We enjoyed lunch atop one of the many hills before riding up another in a funicular built in 1894. I think we're lucky we made it!
