Blog post for Sunday, October 29, 2023
Sunday morning we took a taxi to the airport and flew an hour and 45 minutes north from Puerto Natales to Puerto Montt. It was a good thing that the airport was nearby because the taxi had the propane tank it used for fuel in the trunk we each had one of our bags on our lap.
As we approached the airport in Puerto Montt the plane was being bounced by turbulence. Just as I was thinking how glad I would be to be on firm ground the pilot aborted the landing and we went around to try again. It was still pretty rough the second time but luckily we made it.
In Puerto Montt we rented a car, stopped at the grocery store and drove about an hour north to Ensenada. The place we stayed was unique. We stayed in a geodesic dome with a wood stove for heat and LED lights from two 12 volt batteries. It was an adventure. We played cards and had wine, cheese, salami, bread and chocolate for dinner. There was lots of laughter.
