My Memorable Journey




I am one of those people who prefer to stay at home, before going for a ”mochilear” for example, so I do not travel much, I should not have many memorable trips to tell you. But I'll try to remember some the journey memorable.
The most memorable trip I remember was in the summer, the exact date I do not remember. What if I remember is that this trip was done by train, for me it was the first and last I remember traveling by train. The begin of this journey is in Santiago and the destination is in Puerto Varas.
I remember this trip by the number of events that happened, since leaving Santiago and go through many places besides stopping because of mechanical problems in the locomotive. I believe that the most important stop was for lunch; my parents told me that the best place was Curicó, and then sold delicious "homemade sweets."
Among all the stories that occurred in this unforgettable journey, for me the most important is travel time in that case I do not remember how many were, my parents tell me it was around 15 hours of travel, they could be more as the disadvantages presented in the rail way.

Every February I make the same trip from Santiago to Puerto Varas by bus and take me about 10 to 12 hours are about 1000 km road which they traveled. Finally I want to re-run the train between Santiago and Puerto Montt to relive all the good times of childhood.
