Parque Araucano






On Wednesday morning Sarah, Josh, and Nate went to the park with me. We arranged to meet a friend of Ann’s there. Her name is Tiffanie Wride. She lived just down the street from Ann and Dale. They moved to Costa Rica a few months ago and now they are in Chile. He is starting up his own company and Chile has a program right now called ‘startup chile’. People can apply to bring their new company or idea to Chile and open their business here. If approved they get something like 40,000 dollars of startup money. The government is hoping it will help generate jobs and increase the amount of high-tech industries in the country. If you think I am a brave woman, listen to this…Tiffanie has 7 children under the age of 11! We had a great time getting to know each other and plan to meet regularly.

The park was amazing. It looked like spiderman’s playground. Josh and Nate loved it. I’m really impressed with the parks that I have been to. Another time I’ll have to show you some pictures about the exercise equipment in the parks. I always have too many things to write about each week.
