I´m kinda into this camping thing right now
Entry 50 of 69 | show all | print this entry |
I finally got to Chosuenco, which is even smaller than Pang, which i didn't really expect. Set up the tent, cooked hamburgers for dinner, and sat around till it got dark. Which was late. Now that we are this far south, the nights are loooooong, it doesn't get completely dark till 10.30, and i love it. Slept in the next day, there was a pretty cool volcano in the panorama of the place, and I was sort of thinking about climbing it, until I found out that just getting to the base, which was only 26 kms away, was a federal production, involving a super expensive cab ride, or a full days walk. So the volcano idea turned into a beach idea. After a half an hour or so, the horseflies at the beach got unbearable, and i spent the rest of the day at the campsite. the horseflies in the lakes district of Chile and Argentina, which are apparently only bad in January (go figure), are horrendous. They are the size of golf balls, and once they know you exist they will follow you for miles and miles, buzzing around you in circles, sometimes landing on your arms and poking you just enough to make it sting, but not enough to leave a mark. Anyways, because of the impossible to reach volcano, and the horrifying horseflies, i had a lovely day at the campsite where i laid in the shade, reading, watching the other families, and washing my clothes (which was very badly needed of course). By 10.30, i was sad that it was getting dark, because i had such a nice day and i didn't want it to end.
