More bad Spanish . . .
More bad Spanish and we arrived in Puerto Varas an hour later than we thought we would, the tour office we were supposed to visit was closed and we managed to trek the 15mins to our hostel to be shown to a room with a snuggling couple in a double bed in the middle (awkward). Thinking we had missed our tour and would have to reschedule we chilled in the morning only to be greeted by a smiling American ready to pick us up to go off trekking the local volcano -whoops!

Day 73 – Farewells
... sandwiches. At some point later, we were hungry and it was quite late at night.
Our only excursion out tonight was our dinner that evening. By the time we left, we were starving, so we chose the first restaurant we found. By looks alone, it looked like it was going to be expensive, but ended up only costing us $26 for gnocchi al funghi and Hake fish.
