Covered in ash

Originally we had wanted to spend more time in the Lakes region of Chile and Argentina but our month was flying by and we had heard that a near by volcano was erupting and spreading ash all over the lakes region. We decided to leave El Bolson and decided to go all the way across the boarder to Puerto Montt,Chile, all in one day. These are pictures from the bus as we passed through the ash zone - I usually don't like the buses with air conditioning and sealed windows but on this trip I was glad the windows didn't open. - Giovannina
