Museo y Iglesia (Museum and Church)































Here's the best deal in town-



For 500 pesos, ($1.00 US), you can go to this fabulous little museum beside this huge Catholic Church, and it's all just off a new subway line. A few pictures of this museum and the basilica church for your enjoyment. The basilica is in honor of the Virgen del Carmen. John Paul II dedicated this basilica on his visit to Chile in 1987. The white cassock was worn by JP. Also, on the way back, we stopped at a little Arabic cafe and Richard had a Arabic coffee (YUCK! too strong for me) and 2 soapapillas, also for $1.00 US apiece. And who says there are no bargains these days!!!???
