The trees..look very similar to a tree that grows in Vancouver, commonly known as monkey trees (apparently the only tree a monkey can't climb!?) In fact, with this I just found on wikipedia..sounds like that is it! Araucaria araucana (popularly called the monkey puzzle tree[1][2] or monkey tail tree) is an evergreen tree growing to 40 metres (130 ft) tall with a 2 metres (7 ft) trunk diameter. The tree is native to central and southern Chile and western Argentina.[3] Araucaria araucana is the hardiest species in the conifer genus Araucaria. Because of the species' great age it is sometimes described as a living fossil.
thanks for the videos, it lets us imagine what it would be like to be travelling with you instead of working back home. And thanks for not giving any pictures or videos of the Tourista victims, it can get pretty ugly, and that is one aspect of travelling I don't miss... Keep up the good work on the blog, and feel better soon!
