Irarrázabal house
A nice house 
A not so nice house

The Viking Sun moored in the lovely river bay complete with island and we tendered ashore. An expensive and beautiful resort town for mostly Argentinian and Brazilian wealthy vacationers, with beaches both on the Atlantic side (appealing to surfers) and on the calm bay side, there is a section named Beverly Hills (and some slums as well), and it will soon have a completed Trump Tower. Renowned Chilean artist Mario Irarrázabal built an incredible and huge house here and on a beach is his most famous sculpture La Mana (the hand), versions of which he also created and installed in other parts of the world. We did a short bus tour and later sat on our balcony reading as if we were in a million dollar apartment facing the beach.
