Travels!
Every year,
my family and I go to La Serena, because my mom has all her family there. We
love them! So we go to visit them every summer vacation, winter vacation,
easter week, national holidays, and honestly every time we got the enough time.
We make a great team haha. Our favorite place to travel is Elqui,
because is such a magical and beautiful place! Everyone in my family notices
that something changes us, like we calm down and only enjoy the time between
us.
In summer
vacations we only stayed in Paihuano, but for some reason one time, years ago,
we decided to change of place. Bad option. We were all the day searching for a
house in Cochiguaz for all of us, but we were 14 people that day, and there
were missing 4 more! Also we had 4 dogs with us! Haha We couldn’t find a
nice house, near to the river (because the heat in the valley in summer is
incredible) that were comfortable for each one. So we decided to go finally to
Paihuano, to the house that every one of my family loves. The problem was that some
of us traveled by bus and the others arrived later, then when we wanted to go
to Paihuano we didn’t fit in the van, that was full of things behind. So 5
people had to travel on top of them. Haha I was one of them. But when we
arrived to the highway, those 5 people had to travel inside the van. We were 14
persons and 4 dogs inside haha Now I don’t remember how we made it, but I know
that if we had to do it again, we will make it.
I don’t
have an specific favorite travel, but I think I love every travel that I make with my family because always is different and fun. We have discovered hide rivers and river pools. We have gone to Mamalluca observatory, we stayed until 4 am for saw Saturn!We have gone to Gabriela Mistral's house in Montegrande. We have gone to Cochiguaz, Alcohuaz, Vicuña, Paihuano, Diaguitas, Orcón, Pisco Elqui. I really, really love Elqui. The fauna and flora is incredible and beautiful, the sky is very clean, in the days there are not cluds, and in the night is full of stars. The air is fresh, the Elqui river is amazing and also, I don't know how to say it, but the aura in that place is different, is like this place has some magig that makes everything better.
(The sky is really like this in the night)
And I took this three photos this summer:



Hahaha! nice story! it reminds me my family. I have a similar story, but we were into the car with 7 dogs! and many people, can you imagine that? hahaha!
ReplyDeleteI agree with you, nothing better than a trip with the family to have a fun time :)
My family live in pisco Elqui, I always go there, I really love "Valle del Elqui"
ReplyDeleteIs a good place for relax and have a good time.
Cochiguaz its so beautiful. I don't have family in La Serena but my mom loves to go there
ReplyDeleteI have also traveled with many people and things in the back of a car but was the worst experience ever because were 10 hours of travel and no air!
ReplyDeleteI only went once to La Serena but I didn't get to El Elqui. For your photos, I imagine it's beautiful!
