So yesterday we went to some lake that was about two hours away....i dont remember the name of the lake because it was some mapuche name....which are the native people from this area...like indians basically... so on the way we stopped in curepto and took some pictures on the PACIFIC ocean and with some antique cars that my host dad freaked out when he saw..hahah but anyways it was a good time and enjoy the pics!
this was a sign in the church window in curepto (which happens to be a really old town so we stopped to take pictures but) that says you dont need your cellphone to talk to god so please turn it off before coming in the church..thought it was kind of funny...
sorry the pics are out of order but this is the view from side of the lake...with the palm trees in there...just to make you vermont folk jealous that you are going into winter while i am going into summer!!! hahaha just kidding...
this is the owners daughter...she was soo cute...oh and by owners i mean the people who owned the house that we had lunch at...you will see a pic of the house later on....
this was the sunset on our way home...it was really pretty and as we kept driving it kept getting more red and closer to the water it was really prettyjust a kewl pic of some floaty things next to the water...
ghetto rigged hose....hahah the ghetto rigged stuff here is deff really common and kind of cracks me up....
the controls in the boat....STORY! we get in the boat and it takes off and then starts to die...so im kinda freaking out...but then the guy driving the boat picks up the whole black thing there and rearranges it...and everything started to work again...just again another example of how flightay things are down here...hahahhasome really pretty flowers...my host mom said they were called something of the sun...i dont really remember
one of the roads we drove on....pretty intense....you cant really tell but it was

Great job Elaina. The lake looks nice. It looks a bit rustic there, and the boat does seem a bit shakie. . . did everyone have to wear the life jacket, or does your host dad just feel unsafe? lol He really rocked that jacket : ) It kinda looks like it was choking him. Grandpa would have liked to see those cars, huh? What were they? Thanks for keeping us updated! You are really lucky to have such a wonderful host family to share so, so much with you. lots of love!! Mom
You are right about being envious as we are suppose to get snow tonite! It sure does look inviting....so beautiful. So glad you are enjoying yourself and you are so fortunate to be able to see and do soooo much while you are there. Make the most of it. Thanks for keeping us posted.
Love,Rose and Bill
