Yesterday we had a very nice 'conference outing'. The buses left at 12:30 and luckily we were on the good bus - the one where they remembered to load the lunch bags. So we ate our sandwiches on the way and arrived at the base of the Villarica volcano around 3pm. The volcano is active and we saw lots of puffs of smoke coming out of it. We explored a volcanic cave and took a short walk in the forest, crossing a canyon on a hanging bridge and passing directly above a volcanic hole with smoke coming out.
We took the bus back down to Pucon which is a very cute and very touristy town - reminded us of place like Aspen. We strolled around town for a while and then had a very nice dinner in a hotel before driving back to Valdivia.
