Red Red Wine

7 Jul

Mike and Chris make some friends in the city of Copiapo, and help press wine for their hobby vineyard.

Pressing Wine

Standard -- High Def

A Desert Repose Chris Thompson

Months earlier we had met some happy Canadian cyclists, Mike and Jenna (check out their blog, ‘Long Haul Honeymoon’ on our Blog-Roll). After talking for a few minutes on the side of the road, they told us we had to stay with Amelie and Jose Miguel in Copiapo, Chile, when we were in the desert. They sent us an introductory e-mail, and we proceeded on our ways. Cue to the desert. We rolled down into the small town of Copiapo expecting a day of rest, and then back on the road. As soon as we arrived, we felt like we were in paradise. Amelie, Jose Miguel, and their daughters Maite and Elisa were a wonderful family, and they had made the most beautiful home out here in the desert.
