So we arrived at El Rancho El Añil, where we settled in and went off to dinner in the dining area. The food was great all weekend! It was typical Chilean style food with cold veggies and empanadas. TO DIE FOR!!!
The main reason that we had chosen this “ranch motel” was because of the indoor heated pool. Since we arrived in Chile in February, Hannah asks almost everyday if we can go swimming. Well finally she got to swim!! Both she and Caleb are little fish. (I guess they take after my side of the family!-My uncle, cousin, sister and I were all on swim teams during junior high and high school, and some of us during college too.) Saturday the pool was a bit cooler, but by Saturday afternoon and Sunday morning, the pool was actually hotter than the “hot tub!” It was truly GREAT!!
Saturday was all rainy so we spent our time between the pool, playing pool, and playing board games in our cabin. Games are something I grew up with as a kid and it has become a regular part of Amundson family time. Sunday it was wonderful to wake up to sunshine and of course breakfast brought to us in our cabin again! So nice to go on a vacation where I didn’t have to cook. Overall, it was a short but well needed break for our entire family! If you’re ever down here to visit, maybe you can enjoy breakfast in your cabin too!!

The other nice thing about El Rancho is that they have a whole outdoor pool set up, a kids' playground, tennis, and more. Since this place is only about 40 minutes outside the city and they have a swim during the day and have lunch there deal, maybe we'll be visiting for a day trip again soon!
Just one of the MANY wonderful views of the Andes Mountains that we get to see daily!
