A Holiday as a Child

 Hi!

In my childhood when I was 10 or 11, my family and I used to go to Playas Blancas, which is located in the Litoral Central of Chile. I have a very numerous family and all the summers my parents invited them to vacation with us, so normally we were my three sisters, my brother, my nephew, my grandmother and some uncles and aunts with my cousins. 

My parents always rented the same house and I loved that, It was a wooden house two blocks away from the beach.  I remember the feelings that I had being in that house. It was so comfortable. The house had no TV so we actually spent time with each other, we played cards and of course, we went to the beach. 

The beach was not apt for swimming so we just played beach tennis in the seashore or we built sandcastles. My mom used to brought snacks so we could spend the whole afternoon at the beach.  

In that area was also the Laguna El Peral, which is a sanctuary of nature.We liked to go to this place and see the native flora and the different types of birds that went there. 

Playas Blancas was not a tourist beach back then and we liked that because we could spend some relaxed and fun time with the family. I remember that time with so much nostalgia, it was so fun!
