Valparaíso
(Fotos e Impresiones)
(Photos and Impressions)

Welcome to my blog.
This picture I took from one Protestant cemetery named "FROM THE DISIDENTS", this is in the Cárcel hill (here have 3 cemeteries, the most old from Valparaíso town), in this cemetery also have catholic zone people buried ( as my grandmother...), is very interesting walking in it, because have many histories ( besides in all sides the writted are in german or english...also here had one tomb since 1785, nos this tomb isn't, now have "new deads" that...
This image show some from the Yungay hill, Bellavista hill ( near from one Neruda's houses...that ..for being sincere, the house wasn't from him, he lived as "allegado" in spanish..as "come near", because this house "La Sebastiana", where lived the poet Pablo Neruda, here in Valparaíso, was from one friend doctor and her wife...the last I knew this person live in Viña del Mar town and gave "La Sebastiana" to the Neruda Fundation...) I promise to look for one photo more near from La Sebastiana.
This picture I took from I live ( in a 6th in a building).
In a rain day, was very nice, because also was the sun, and...the rainbow!!, there is , aslo, where I work ( a boys school) it have 116 years old ( come from the De La Salle Patronage, oldFrance community)





And ..it is another image from Valparaíso town ( is beauty, isn't it? ;) ), here no appear the Aconcagua mount, but if one up more by the streets on the hills you can see some the mount, snowed...., those dark mounts is the Coast mountain range.
Also you can see the port..usually the sky in Valparaíso no look so, these photos I took after of the rain, our sky represent our weather, "mediterranean"...., now you understand me, why I am loved from my town...
