3 days at La Serena

My best vacations happened four years ago, destination? La Serena. I remember I was going to decide not to go with my brother because I had a debate next week and I needed to study, but I thought I could study during the trip (spoiler: There wasn´t time to study). It would be a short 3 days vacations, it was a long trip, I started to miss Santiago during the fourth hour of trip, the weather was mild when we arrived at La Serena, our first destination was the Japanese garden, the decorations and infrastructure of the place were impressive. 

 

Then we went to tour the Third Millennium Cross in Coquimbo, it´s an amazing monument!!!!! It was a unique experience because I had never been in such a high place, the cab looked like it was jumping trying to go down the hill, I thought I was on the roller coaster. We got a tour to go around the Elqui Valley the next day, 

 

 

 

 I don't remember more beautiful landscapes than the ones I saw in that place, fortunately the sun appeared that day and we could get good pictures, I think it was the most fun day of my life because I felt like I was living an adventure. We spent the last day of the trip touring the city, we walked along the beach, visited the monumental lighthouse and a zoo whose name I don´t remember. When I returned to Santiago I remembered that I had not studied anything for my debate, the professor told my group that it was our turn, when we were in front we did not say anything, we just looked at each other and laughed. It was a very embarrassing moment, but I didn't feel bad because I knew I had lived such wonderful moments that I would remember forever, moments that still live with me.
