Wine Tasting!

 Meet our good friend Tamara. She once worked at a winery, then as a tour guide, and now as a English teacher. She is a wine enthusiast as well as a very fun sister, therefore she was perfectly suited to guide us through the many wineries in Chile. She can also tell you about any movie or any cultural event that is happening in the area, so she is a wonderful asset to have if you are looking for something to do.


The Chardonnays here are especially good because this region of Chile is known for its dry, sandy soil so white wines are their forte. Also the "tastings" were quite generous.



 Since it was a day off of life for all of us, we did silly things where ever we went. We took lots of crazy jumping pictures, but I think that this one turned out the best. Don't they look happy?!






A day of exploring wineries and tasting is hard work, so make sure you schedule a little rest time here and there.



Do you like the pictures? They were all taking by Andreas, the man of the house we are staying in. He also drove us and is responsible for this fun day. He is a very good, giving man. We are grateful.
