Saturday bike ride to Parque Bicentenario

This is an old post that I wrote but never published so I'm posting it now for myself.  
Claudia has a bicycle and she lets me ride it!  See it by the palm tree below with pink-wall tires.  
Beautiful day for a ride with views of the Andes (a little snow still on top) and a lively and beautiful park full of people. In the first photo you see hills, not the Andes peaks.  I saw many people and families jogging, biking, walking, picnicking,  and enjoying the outdoors. 
Santiago seems very much like any US city.  So far, no culture shock at all.  I saw a Starbucks and a McDonald's today on my walk and a couple historical things we wouldn't see at home.  It's clean, green, and people are friendly.
