Write about a Beach or Lake you have visited

I love getting out of Santiago and going to the coast. I love seeing the sea and getting some fresh air. Over Fiesta Patrias I went to Isla Negra. I'd been there before but I'd only really passed through, stopping by the beach close to the Neruda museum and then going on to Algarrobo or El Tabo. Anyway, this time I stayed with a friend and her family who live near a place called Cantaleo which is a piece of land owned by the Neruda Foundation which is a little park. I'd never been there before and I thought it was really nice. There were lots of birds: Loicas, Lapwings (Queltehue, hawks and some others whose names I'm not sure of. The day we went and walked along the coastline was beautiful, clear blue skies and warm spring sun. Later we went into the town centre and bought empanadas from Donde Florencia which were really (really, really good). I ate a seafood one and a Cheese and Olive one accompanied by a few glasses of wine. All in all it was a wonderful day that helped me forget stressful Santiago:) Write about a beach or lake you have visited. Say: Where it is, When you went there, Who you went with, What you did there, Why you remember the visit. Mention anything else you think is important. Write at least 200 words. Leave a comment on my blog and on the blogs of at least 3 classmates.
