Puerto Varas, in the Lake District of southern Chile. This is where German farmers brought their families beginning in 1852, to develop farms around the large Lake Llanquihue.
The German farmers brought their language and culture, including this Chilean favorite, "kuchen".
This is one of those days when you can see six or seven volcanos in the distance. These three are Osorno, Tronador, and Calbuco.
One of the great attractions near Puerto Varas is the Salto de Petrohue, with Osorno Volcano as a backdrop

Puerto Grés in Puerto Varas. The word grés refers to the style of firing. It might be translated as stoneware.
My new little house in California needs some Chilean touches. Here is a new set of dishes by Hanny Bergen, sent by mail from Puerto Grés in Puerto Varas. Thank you Hanny!
