Valley De Elqui - La Serena






La Serena is a beachside town with great surf, grey sand and a learn to surf school. The town has 27 churches but apparently not many takers.









Hostal El Punto was the perfect place to stay - walked in, dropped my bags in my room and headed for the restaurant, a bottle of red wine and a welcoming fire.














 

A visit to the brewery and the obligatory tasting is a must do!
The best Pisco is a few years old but if you mix it with coke ..Piscola.. you can drink the el cheapo stuff!
Pisco is the traditonal dink of Chilenos and is really potent .. usually drunk with lemon juice and castor sugar!
 


The locals have their stalls to sell to the turisticas - amazing what they sell!
