MY FAVORITE ANIMAL

My favorite animal is the cheetah; this animal belongs to the family of the felines and its main feature is that is one of the faster animals over the earth.
The cheetah lives in the African savannah and is an agile hunter, but unfortunately is a little shy to defend its food and other animals constantly steal it from him
Since I was a little girl I like cheetahs, I don’t remember when or where was the first time that I saw him , but I thinks I may have seen on TV or maybe in a book of animals that was in my house.
What I like most about the cheetah is the way it moves, is so fine, like it was flying over the grass. I like too the anatomy of cheetahs, they are so thin, with extremely long and strong legs and its color is beautiful and original, has a yellow body with brown spots.
I love watch TV programs where cheetahs are running, I thinks that they should feel so free!. One thing that I don’t like so much is see a cheetahs hunting , because normally they eat gazelles, and gazelles are so pretty too! They are fast and thin and have longs legs too, but I like more cheetahs because for me, they have more character, are most strong and are hairier than the gazelles (being hairy makes it sweeter!).
I hope that someday can see in live a cheetah (of course that from a safe place) o touch a baby cheetah!. Well, until that happens, I will have to conform hugging to my teddy cheetah!

what to do/ where to go in Santiago

Santiago is the capital from Chile. I think that Santiago is a nice city, can be better of course, but is not so bad.
In January of this year, my cousin that live in Canada, came to Chile for first time, so we made together a mini tour for Santiago, and the places that I liked more were:
1. National Museum of Natural History
This museum is in Quinta Normal, beside to the station of metro Quinta normal, and is so interesting, have a lot of characteristic things for the different regions of Chile, is like make a mini travel through all Chile!! One of the things that I left more impressed was a blue whale skeleton, was huge! (Is in the picture)
2. Santa Lucia Hill
The hill Santa Lucia is a place that definitely have to visit, is very nice, with a lot of nature, and is not so tall, so doesn’t take many time get to the climb where there is an extraordinary view for Santiago.
3. La Moneda palace
“La Moneda” is the seat of government, the building has a very nice design, and the outdoors gardens are very nice too. The picture that I have, was taken for a police man who was very kind in accept take us a photo!!
4. The Dominican village
This village is a kind of giant craft fair, have a lot of memories from Chile, unfortunately is a little expensive, but some things worth the money.
5 .Bellas Artes museum
This museum has many exhibitions of paintings and statues, and apart from that, the infrastructure of the museum is beautiful, making it a nice place to take pictures.
