Greetings, international travelers, and welcome to beautiful Vina Del Mar, Chile! The beans were invited by the people of Chile to visit their fine country, and being the well traveled (and always polite) vegetable that they are, the beans were glad to make an appearance.

Anyway, Vina del Mar is Chile’s most popular seaside resort town, and sits about an hour away from Santiago, along the Pacific Ocean.

Since they were here on vacation, the beans were afforded a luxury suite at the beautiful new Hotel Del Mar. The beans found this to be fabulous, and thank the hotel staff for their courtesy, the thick bath robes, and best of all, the key to the mini-bar.

Now, one of the highlights of the Hotel Del Mar is their onsite casino, where you can throw your money away just as easily as you can in Reno!!! But since security measures are tight everywhere today, the hotel security staff had to make sure that the beans were legit. So here you see one of the nice security agents checking out the beans for himself.

Cleared by hotel security, the beans were finally allowed into the casino, where they had a swell time playing baccarat. And although their luck wasn't as good as they would've hoped, at least they didn't have to come home inside a wooden barrel. We can all be thankful for that.
