There was a beautiful fountain honoring Neptune along the way. We went to the Costanero Center the tallest building in South America at 300 or so meters. You can see it in the distance in the panorama.

Santiago, Chile
Well it was a long day of travel but dean and I arrived safely in Santiago , Chile. No glitches on the first leg of travel. Santiago is a city of 6+ million people and so far I have only found 2 that spoke English. Communication is something I'm usually good at but my spanish is a bit rusty. We walked a bit and hiked up a park with a sweeping vista of the Andes mountain range and the city in the valley.

After a little rest we ventured out for dinner and found an area full of street cafe's called Bellavista. Chose a corner for people watching and ordered of the spanish menu with only a little clue of what we were ordering. the cerveza was cold and all was good.
Tomorrow we are off to Punta Arenas for our next stop and then on to the Frozen continent.

Welcome!
Welcome to Have Camera, Will Travel, my new blog for sharing my photographic expeditions with friends, family, and landscape and wildlife photography enthusiasts. I hope you'll enjoy reading about my adventures around the world on my quest to visit and photograph all seven continents.
It has been a dream of mine to take pictures on every continent. Living life on the fringe first took me to Kenya and Tanzania in Africa in January of 2011. I was fortunate enough to find internet service available in the middle of the Serengeti desert, and you can find my musings and images from that trip at:
My current expedition takes me to the Antarctic islands and continent with my longtime friend Dean Nations. I am hopeful that I will again find internet access while cruising the southern ocean, and that my travels will reveal to all of you secrets from the brightest and coldest continent.
Man has been venturing to Antarctica for over 200 years, and I am excited to join this lineage of adventurers with a penchant for temperatures below 20 degrees Fahrenheit. I'll hopefully have pictures of penguins, seals, albatrosses, whales, and floating mammoth icebergs in the southern ocean to share with all of you.
