The trip to
the Kunstman Brewery in Valdivia, Chile was a total success. Luis and I left
Santiago on Wednesday and headed to his Mother's house in Concepcion. About a
six hour trip. On Thursday I was invited to his Mother's for lunch before
leaving for his Brother's house in Los Angeles. About a four hour trip. The
route we took to Los Angeles was very scenic as it bordered the river. On
Friday we headed south to Valdivia with two of Luis' brothers, a trip of about
six hours. Saturday afternoon we went to the "Bier Fest" which turned
out to be a non event unfortunately. We arrived about six in the afternoon and
most attractions were closed until 8:00pm. There was a small classic car show
so we took that in, then headed downtown for diner. On Sunday we took a bike
ride along the river and then a Ferry to the very quaint town of Corral on the
far side of the river before returning to the Cabins for a cookout. Monday,
around noon we headed to the Kunstman Brewery for a very enjoyable lunch before
starting the long trip back towards Santiago arriving on Tuesday.
