I love the beach...even in winter :)

HELLO!!!

Ok serious update time :) Well...

The end of the semester party for my Junior class was tons of fun of course and I had a blast with the students as well as practiced my Spanish. Good times all around I´d say! The next day, Saturday, I headed off with my family, Amy and Sam to my parents house on a beach in Aduao! It´s only right considering half of my family is on the Jersey Shore right now soaking up the sun!! The trip was about 2 hours and totally worth it. I loved the ride there because I feel like I got to see true Chilean countryside :) Lots of vineyards involved which I hope I will get to see upclose and personal one of these days!

So we arrived in Aduao around 7ish and took a little strole to the beach. Now it wasn´t really your sunny day white sand kind of beach :) There was actually black sand which I found really interesting and it was rainy lol. But I still can´t tell you how good it felt to get out of Curico and to see the ocean! I feel totally rejuvinated! We spent our time frolicking with umbrellas and eating good sea food :) It was a cute little town with a little (and I mean little) port. The port was actually called a Caleta. We played games into the night and slept all of our stresses away :) It was a nice start to our 2 weeks of vacation! Now I am back in Curico and off to Winter Camp!

Hope all is well!
