02/11/2019 – Pucon, Chile

Had a nice lay in, and then some scrambled eggs and coffee. Went for a jog with Josh around Pucon, it was a beautiful summers day here, clear blue skies. We ran along the lake and then up to a Christ the redeemer statue in the cemetery, with a viewpoint across the town and the lake. It is really very beautiful here! We came back and sat on the grass by the lake for a bit. A gorgeous sandy stray dog came and sat on our laps and gave us cuddles, he had such a nice temperament! We showered and tidied our room before heading out to the local empanada shop. We always go for the turkey, cheese and cranberry sauce – absolutely delicious! It is bank holiday this weekend so town was absolutely crammed and the hostel is at full capacity – it holds about 60 guests I think. We walked back home and I opened the bar up. Lucas (a German volunteer) is cooking a curry with an Indian guest tonight for a load of us to share so I am looking forward to that!
