On Friday we visited Cousino Macul winery, the oldest winery in Chile. The 154 year old cellars were very cool to see. Much of the old equipment was around to view which gave me an appreciation for the conveniences of modern technology. In the cellar our guide gave us a tasting of a blend called Gris which was rather unique.
The next day was our free day, so it was a perfect evening to get a taste of the Chilean night life. We started by getting drinks on top of the W hotel and watched the sun set. We then headed out in search of some food. As we walked down the street the owner of one of the restaurants noticed we spoke English. His restaurant was called "California" and being that we were from the same place he invited us in for a free round of beers. After a taco and a beer or two we entered the club next door. We stayed there for a while and had some champagne but decided it was time for a discotheque. I had never been to anything quite like it, the Chileans know how to party. Finally at about 4:30 am we headed back to the hotel for some well deserved rest.
