Trip to Valparaiso

Now that the experiment is over, we had to make a trip to Valparaiso to deliver some samples. The inorganic nutrients will be measured at the Pontifica Universidad Catolica de Valparaiso. After delivering the samples we used the opportunity to have a look around the city, which has the status of a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
