I spent most of the afternoon at the beach in Pucon but because I am still recovering from my burns I passed the time under a parasol and fully clothed with sum cream all over me. I don´t really want to make the burns worse than they already are, its bad enough at the moment.
The beach was quite a noisy place, there are people walking up and down selling all sorts of things. Some of them agua mineral, bebidas, some are selling fresh squeezed fruit juices, some are selling all sorts of snacks from lollipops to these strange tubular things filled with caramel sauce and also sweet pastries. They are all shouting what they are selling. Then you have the boys on the beach walking round asking people if they need parasols and/or sun loungers, so it´s quite a busy place, thats not including the murmour of hundreds of people tightly packed along the beach.
Ooh, I just spotted my first pigeon in Chile, for some reason it isn´t a wood pigeon even though we are surrounded by tress and mountains and are out in a countryside town, and also the pigeons are on the beach taking the place of gulls.
