5/5

hi all
so on cinco de mayo, which i totally missed in my head such a bummer, we went to a Palta farm. Paltas=avocado. so more of that in a minute.
First there are tons of churches here. Chile is a very catholic country. the churches are beautiful. however, they also have these really large "dolls" instead of statues of Mary, Jesus...
they look like those dolls you had when you were a girl where when you put them down their eyes closed. super creepy.



in the back of this picture is one of those "dolls" they totally creeped me out.


alright, Palta Plantation! So lets just say how much we love Quillota. Girls, Quillota is where the hotties are! We love Quillota boys. Sorry, but i had to get that out. Chile has not a huge selection of hotties, so the ones that we get we really like to savor. and my 2 favorite have been in Quillota.
so back to the Palta plantation. this was such a cool day. we went to the family plantation of a Rotarian. check out these photos.

this is the house on the plantation, it was beautiful




this was the tractor train that we took through the palta fields. it was the bins that they usually transport the paltas in. this was me in the bin making a face at my camera and dora looking cute.


these are paltas

all that green is the family plantation


hello hottie! alright, this was the son of the rotarian. he is the one who drove the tractor. i dont think the tractor drivers in California look like this

tarantula!

the back of the hottie. Dora took tons of pictures of his back hoping he would turn around.



this was the group for the day. notice the halo of light around the hottie. yup, hot.
alright, the man on the left was Maggie & my Papi. We miss you papi.

me, maggie & dora in a palta bin. Muy grande paltas :)

this was the rotarian who owns the plantation. way to go mister on your palta growing skills as well as your son growing skills :)

mmm, hottie

the girls

so, sorry about the whole hottie thing, but seriously most guys here arent that cute. and its starting to get to be a few weeks. so anyways, whatever, i love hotties.

Marina in church??? We were trying to figure out if you were actually in the church taking pictures, or your camera has a really good zoom. I'm guessing, the zoom is out of control. Otherwise, you wouldn't have been alive to write down these blogs. Whew, that was a close one.

And how fitting that you're down in the sewer. Do I even need to go there?

Where's the other blogs? You're slacking. Keep us informed.

OH, and the reason the Californian "tractor" drivers don't look like that is because they drive things called automobiles!!
