A travel with my family..

Three years ago, the first two weeks of Febreary I and my family went on a trip to the south of our country, Chile and part of Argentina. My grandfather want to do something special to reunited the all family and have a good experience; but also he wanted to say goodbye to his field, a place that have many of our memories when we were kids.
He had to sell his field because he was very old to worked in it and he had not money to keep this great place. This situation caused many problems in my family. His sons (3) and daughters(3), including my mother, take differents positions, some supported the idea to sell the field so my grandfather can have a good retirement, but others thought that this peace of land was a good heredity for them.
Well, my grandfather want to do this trip to join my family again, but in this case would be in another place, Calafate.
I think that it was the best vacation that I had, not only because I have the opportunity to be with my 20 cousins, my 8 uncles and my grandparents, it was great because we were all join in great and magnific places sharing the same happiness together.

Tourist attractions in Santiago

My cousin Francisca Raty live in Coyhaique and when she visited me here in Santiago for five days I chose the best places to show her and have a good time. The first day we went to an ice field in Parque Arauco becuase she love ice skating, then we go to the cinema in the same mall to watch a romance movie and be relax.

The second day we went to the zoo in San Cristobal ´s hill; she want to be a veterinary and the animals are one of her passions. The cablecar its located near in the same hill and I supposed that was a great opportunity to have a view of Santiago from above.

The third day we went to a restaurant that I like very much, Gatsby. The great thing that characterized this restaurant is that you can eat all the food that you want with the same price; It is a buffet, so you pay the plate but not the amount of food. After that great meal we need to do some sport, and in that case tennis was the sport that motive us in that moment. There are a tennis court near my house in Camino El Alba, I like this place because is cheap and not many people go, so it is a quiet area.

The fourth day we go out in the nigth to Murano that is a disco that I go with my friends approximately once a month, so she can met some friends of mine and we dance all nigth.

It was the last day, and she have to leave Santiago in the afternoon so we only have the morning to have fun. I think that Fantasilandia would be the last activity. It is a amusement park with great and scary games that make you scream and some times throw up.: is perfect to leave santiago satisfied and with eager to return.
