Day 38 - Rained in

Puerto Varas

Today we had planned to pick up the hire car we booked yesterday and drive around Lake Llanquihue, visiting the towns and Volcan Osorno on the way around. We woke during the night to the sound of heavy rain, and it was still raining come morning. We were due to pick up the car at 10am, by 9:30am the situation hadn't improved so we rang the rental agency and postponed the car. We ended up staying in our cute cabana for most of the day by the cosy wood fire.

We put the day to good use and did some forward planning, we got so carried away that by 5pm when the rain finally stopped we had almost planned a whole week in advance, which for us seems quite risky as plans can change so easily when you are under-prepared as we are.

We had postponed the rental car pickup to later in the day, as our plan now was to get going early tomorrow morning. The rain finally stopped around 5pm, so we managed to collect the car as well as do our grocery shopping without getting wet.
