It's been a busy weekend for my bioarch friend and I, the Globetrotting Monkey. This coming week we will be away from the museum as it is their "spring break", but we will not be resting on our laurels or anything else for that matter. We're going to use that time to work on other research related stuff, but before then, we took a little time to ourselves. We visited the Eiffel Church, an all steel church (well, except for the door, which is wooden, and the windows, which are glass). Originally meant for a city in Peru, it eventually made its home here in Arica to replace one that was lost in an earthquake. And yes, Eiffel as in the guy who did the Eiffel Tower in Paris.
And, of course, it wouldn't be a break without the beach. This time the beach was covered with all sorts of things, including jelly fish, making it a little more treacherous to walk on. We ended up just chilling in the dry sand instead of taking a chance in the water. Here are some pics and video from our adventures:
