Fiestas Patrias

Hi everyone! today I want to tell you about what I did in Fiestas Patrias; the Sunday 17th in the afternoon in my house my family prepare a anticuchos and choripanes, and my mother made “terremotos” for drink, I like this drink because is very sweet and cold (because include Ice cream of pineapple) but I try to don’t drink very much of this because I don’t like the Pipeño ( a type if white Wine) and his effect.

In the 18th we prepare a barbecue, I ignite the fire and I cook the meat in the barbecue, the meat that I prepare was very tasty. In this day my daughters invite to our house some Friends and 

They brought us empanadas, which were very rich and the best thing is that they did not have raisins xD. I remember that day I ate quite roasted and made empanadas for the next day I no longer wanted to see the meat that had been left and that my mom served for lunch. The next day I remember that my father got up to watch the military parade through the TV and in the afternoon we went to a Fonda of the Vizcachas. The best thing about that place was that everything was very cheap because they were making sales of auction because they had to take advantage of selling before the fiestas patrias ended

Something you did last Weekend

Hi everyone! today I want to write about to something you did the last weekend. In my case I went to the San Cristobal hill with a friend to observe the some types of birds, and take photos of they. 

This is a new activity for me, but is interesting and calming. From my childhood I like to know of animals in general, but my knowledge of birds is scanty, and this is the main reason to my interest in this activity.

We start the route from Pedro Valdivia entrance of this hill the day was very cloudy and cold, in the middle of this trail the fog wet the ground and the trail turn some difficult ( I close to fall hill down sometimes), but when we stay near to the middle of the hill, my friend use a speaker to the sound of some birds to attract this to can take photos of them. Inmediately after the sound attract hummingbird, this bird fly to fast and made very difficult take a picture, in fact I can't take a photo to them; because the speed of this bird are amazing and the light of the day condition was very bad.

To the ends of this walk we see many types of birds; Fio- Fio( Elaenia albiceps) Chincol (Zonotrichia capensis), Chercàn (Troglodytes aedon) Come Tocino( Phrygilus gayi), and others.
In this activity a new friend was incorporated into our walk ( see the firts photo).

An Exhibition or Concert You Enjoyed

Hello everyone! This time I would like to tell you about an exhibit that I attended when I was a child and that I meant a lot to me at that time; I mean the exhibition of animatronic dinosaurs. This because since I was very small I felt a great fascination for dinosaurs, I remember that every time when I got good grades I asked my mom to buy me a plastic toy dinosaur, that's how I started to have a little collection of these and memorize their names. I get so much interest in dinosaurs that even my parents had to buy me an encyclopedia.
I remember one day I was watching TV when I saw the announcement of this exhibition, which I believe was the first time it was held in Chile, the place where Mapocho Station was made, and I begged my parents to go to this exhibition. It was an exhibition of real-life mechanical replicas of the beasts that dominated the Earth millions of years ago and of which I was deeply interested.
This exhibition was fantastic (at least for me at that age it was xD), what was more impressive was the size of the dinosaurs and the realistic setting that had that exhibition, the sound emitted by each mechanical dinosaur produced the feeling that it really was like a real one. Another thing that entertained me enough was that there was an area where dinosaur bones could be unearthed, as paleontologists do, and I still have some photographs of the bones (of plastic) and fossils they had in my house. Probably this is one of the most entertaining memories of my childhood and that I will hardly forget (especially for the scare that takes me when I hear the roar of the T-Rex)
