We did some fabulous sightseeing while we were in Pucon.





But, I think Penelope’s (and my) favorite thing was the thermal springs. Â We spent the afternoon lounging in the warm pools and Penny practiced her swimming. Â She did really good at floating and loved putting her head and face in the water. Â Now we have to teach her to blow bubbles!







This next photo is not the mist flattering, and I normally HATE bathing suit pictures, but I love the expressions on our faces. Â There were stairs leading down into the river, so you could go from FREEZING cold mountain water right into the hot pools. Â We got a video of Steve going into the river which we will have to post later!!

After spending the night and the morning at the falls, we headed down to Pucon for 2 nights. Â We had a wonderful time exploring the town, driving around the countryside and sightseeing.

Hiking to the base of the volcano. Â It was smoking while we were there!











We also went and played at the black sand beach. Â Penny had a blast!


Before heading to Pucon, while we were packing the car up there was a man and horse working, and Penny was lucky enough to get to hang out with the horse. Â She really loves animals, just like her mom!

More to come from Pucon!
Grams and Mom spent the afternoon relaxing on the patio drinking pisco sours while Penny slept. Â Penny woke up and Dad came home just in time to watch the sunset, and yes, Grams saw for the first time, a green flash!

Penny sporting her 2 new awesome hats that Grams made- a pumpkin and an apple!




“Grams, you wear my hat!”
