Piedra Azul, Los Lagos, Chile: gateway to northern Patagonia


The small community of Piedra Azul includes several families who live along the shore of Relconcaví Sound near Puerto Montt in southern Chile. I spent a lovely afternoon with friends Gabriela and Javier at Gabriela's home. We first purchased two large fish fresh from the water.


The main house, just across the road near the shore


Our lunch will be a merluza (hake). Javier is an enthusiastic and experienced cook who will soon open his new cafe - restaurant in Puerto Montt.


Canela, about the happiest dog I have met in southern Chile


The beautiful countryside of Piedra Azul 


After lunch we set off to explore the property
