On Sunday it was windy so we went
to the Huerquehue national park
 

and saw sheep with fat heads,

 

lots of bamboo in the forest,
 

a big waterfall,
 

and of course Villarica in the distance
 

Martina waiting by the lake in the
park for the bus back to town
 

An evening swim in the thermal pools

 

Early morning at the climbing store only to find
out it was too windy to climb the volcano :-(
 

Waiting for the bus
 

I floated around watching shooting stars
 

Yummy breakfast at our hostel
