Puerto Chacabuco

We had a pleasant time roaming around the seaside village of Chacabuco, petting great big dogs, happy cats, and chatting with friendly locals.

The flora here reminds me a lot of the Seattle area. I knew the name of nearly every plant we saw: clover, dock, calendula, columbines, etc. Most of the roses were old world, roses that still smell like roses. (I’m sure Shakespeare would approve!)

There was a small crafts market near the ship. I bought a loose-knit cardigan from the woman who made it. It’s lightweight enough that I’ll be able to wear it in Texas and have pleasant memories of this beautiful day.Leer más
