27 F

Hi bloggers! I'll talk about 27F. This date was an experience that marked us inside everyone.

In my case, I was vacationing in Radal, Seven Cups, Region VII. I had gone to visit The Radal National Park before of this fact. I had returned to my home the days before (25/F) and I was lucky due to it.

My family is originally from Illapel, IV region. When the earthquake occurred, I was sleeping at that moment my sister and me share at same bedroom. I felt waves and I sat in my bed, my sister too. Nobody in my house is afraid of earthquakes. My mom doesn’t afraid to quake and sister and I had an experience of an earthquake that affected us in the street, away from the house when we were little. After that, we lost the fear of earthquakes.

That night my sister and I looked out the window and we saw that was not a very strong earthquake, just left in the dark with a power outage.

The next morning we had no news until 3 p.m. returning electricity and we check the strong of earthquake.

Almost all my family lives between Region II, III and IV, therefore nobody of my family were affected. But at that time I had a girlfriend, and she had gone to visit his family in Lebu, Region VIII, and my big surprise was when I saw the news on TV about the epicentre was there.

I tried going to Lebu but all transport was blocked from my town and I could do nothing. I tried calling a lot of times. I had heard from her 3 days after the 27F. She explained to me that she and her family were fine but that his grandmother was in Concepcion and they had to travel because she was alone and her house was destroyed.  Fortunately she was fine, she just suffered few thefts.

Definitely this earthquake remain in the memory colective

"27F Memorial" in honor to the victims.

Dear Blogger !!! Today talk you about a country would like to visit in the next time. I speak about of Italy.

One of the countries that I’d like visit is Italy. This country is in the southern part of Europe and is bathed by the waters of the Mediterranean Sea. Italy is the particular shape of a boot that makes it distinct from other countries.

This country for some reason that I don’t know very well, has caught my attention. For me it is interesting language, customs, typical meals and especially his landscapes, such as Sicily. I would visit this country because I find it has a rich culture that has remained over time, being protagonist of important events in history like the Roman Empire, the rise of the Vatican and the Second World War.

I think it is a tourist country and I would visit places that have always caught my attention such as: The Coliseum, The Sistine Chapel, The Saint Peter's Basilica, The Trevi Fountain, and off course, the famous Pizza Tower.

"Laguna Arcoiris" - National Park Conguillio

In the southern, I visited The National Park Conguillio. It has a volcano called Llaima what is active each ten years and it has lush vegetation. 

The icon tree is the Araucaria here, a millenary tree what live from age of dinosaurs. In addition,produce a nut called “Piñón”, the food of mapuche people.

The Fray Jorge National Park is located in the Limari province and it’s characterized for its matinee fogs in hills.

A game called: “Sketch"

 

 

Opening the trunk of memories, I can tell us that I was lucky of got a large family. I have twelve cousins, 7 men and 5 women. We visited a grandma’ house and here we enjoyed of summer evenings. My favourite game was the “Sketch”. I learnt it around of 6 - 8 years old, I don’t remember so well. I never understood why it was called thus until now.

 

 

This game can play between 4 until 16 people; it’s dependent of the place to use. It’s based in 1 person/2 people called “quemados” and they have a ball in his/their hands and this ball is launch to other players for marking off and the player “spotted” must take the place of his friend quemado. The other players are keeping in saved in circles drawn in the ground with a common location called “base”. The player to have run between all the spotted zones called “Sketch” for to avoid being “quemados”.  The player win the game when can complete three times a circuit without being marked.

 

I enjoyed very much this game because I could to do physical activity, it is an outdoor game and I could to share with my family and to laugh so much.

I last played this game in 2002, due to the fact that everyone has already grown.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 



The beach of my Town

In the last time I can go to visit the town where I grew.  This town is called “El Palqui” and “la Paloma” was its beach. Even though really it is a big damming located in the heart of “Valle del Limari”. My regards are beautiful because this place was full of life and all around was green and prosperous. The people used this water for all, from to irrigate planting until to drink and take a bath like as beach. I was going to every summer in my infancy and it was called “the beach of the town”.

 

Ten years later absent while I’ve been in Santiago, I was going to visit to my grandparents and I saw the abrupt change in this summer: The damming is barren because rainless. This locate is a real desert now and it will in this way until the rain get life on the infertile ground.
