Last day in Villarica

Street scene - Villarica

In the morning we had our last buffet breakfast at Hotel El Parque and said goodbye to our cabaña.

We returmed to the embarcadero to look for a flying steamer duck reported on ebird.  No luck but we went back to the great grebe colony and watched four pairs do their courtship displays.

We checked out another beach but there were no steamer ducks or other new birds to be seen.

We went back to the pizza place and had jugos naturals and pepperoni pizza.

As an example of our facility with Spanish, Leo asked for jugo de naranja (orange juice) and got this:

Hmm look at those desserts back there . . .

Blueberry juice (arándano). 

We checked out a Mapuche museum (really just a replica of a hut and some souvenir stands) and bought some wooden crafts.

Then it was time to drive back to the Temuco Airport, drop off the rental car and fly back to Santiago.
