Hola!
After some big sites, now I am going to write about some smaller ones. For starters, I am writing from a tiny but interesting shop in El Melon, Chile (a small town where my Mom and Dad lived). They sell Coke, chips, crackers, and sweets. They also have an interesting pinball game and three computers with connections to the Internet. The walk here was even more interesting. It is very dark and kinda scary. Unfortunately, there are not too many stars because it´s too cloudy tonight. During our walk, we saw a drunk bloke and several wild dogs, both of which are common here. I even saw horses on an island in the middle of a small river.
It is freezing here at night (in fact, with temperatures below freezing and no central heating, some Chileans have died recently). Some summer vacation! To stay warm, I bought a new ski cap and some gloves, and I sleep with them on (along with my fleece and socks)!
Last night, we played alongside the same ocean that we have up in Oregon. My sister and I had a lot of fun playing on the beach, and we saw a beautiful sunset (pink and orange).
The mother of my Mom and Dad´s friend is a great cook. We´ve had an avocado salad, spaghetti with cream sauce, cazuela (a traditional chilean soup with meat, potatoes, corn, and rice), and picarones (a pumpkin donut made only when it rains...and it rained last night).
That´s all for now. I miss you guys a lot.
Max

Different lens
Dear Max, Just think what a different lens you will be looking through when you return. I can't wait to talk with you! Love, Aunt C
