More Frutillar

Posted on January 24, 2012 by No Comments

We spent a few more days in Frutillar. I caught up on my sleep after a hectic week of work and plane rides. Angela and Bode continued their routine of sleeping until noon and then going to the beach. Tough life, these two. I don't think we could have picked a better place for them to ...

It’s just a step to the left…

It was a quick and exhausting week. I was called back into the old lab for a proverbial 'laying on of hands' - I'm sort of known for it. Start with something that doesn't quite work right and then make it sing. This might shed some light on the vintage VW thing. But, my big travel ...

Things here in Frutillar, Chile have been great. We stumbled upon a great place to hang out while Jason's gone. But we haven't done much, sort of a little break from traveling I guess.

There is a long sandy insect-free beach that runs the entire length of town and enterprising hippies have found just about every distraction ...

We seem to be losing in the game of outrunning the ash of the temperamental volcano Puyehue. We left Entre Lagos in search of clearer skies, but didn't really have a destination. So, we followed the dusty path to the town of Puerto Octay... described as "quaint" and "German". A bit of a stretch in ...

The Trouble Maker

Posted on January 12, 2012 by 2 Comments

We successfully outran the ash falling around Lago Ranco when we made it to the town of Entre Lagos on Lake Puyehue. It was a beautiful day, and we had excellent views of the smoke and ash spewing out the top of Volcan Puyehue on the other side of the lake. this is the volcano ...
