On the Road in Chile
Patience is a virtue. After waiting to see what our next step would be on this adventure, we received an answer in the form of our luggage! Delivered, as promised, on time and intact. Being in a new place without any clothes or gear can leave one feeling exposed, but it all worked out well. We picked up our camper van, Brian, and hit the road. Our first stop: Parque Nacional Huerquehue in the Chilean Lakes District. We spent two nights in the park and took a wonderful day hike in the mountains where we enjoyed spectacular views of smoking Volcan Villarrica, Chile's most active volcano. As we gained elevation, the trail gave way to amazing forests of monkey puzzle trees and serene alpine lakes. We had a picnic lunch of fuet and pan (bread and salami)as we sat next to Lago Tinquilco and soaked up the wonderful summer weather. Moving on, we are on our way back into Argentina. We will be camping along the way, and will post more at our next stop. Caio!
