¿Valió La Pena?

Was it worth it?


Last year, a new student came to school. His name was Juan Diego, and his

house was located very near to mine. He had a little brotherwho is one year

older than my brother. One day, my brother, who is very friendly and has a lot of

energy, scheduled a meeting with Juan’s family, and that’show my family and I

become friends of them. Ever since then, we go out with them every now and

then, either to eat, to travel or just to have fun.


Atthe beginning of this year, we decided to go to “La Caleta del Inca”, a cove

which is located a few km. away from Camana. As we were on the highway, Irealized Juan’s car was going somewhat slow and my dad had to go slower so

they wouldn’t get lost. We arrived in more time than expected because of that.

Bythe time we got to the Camana, Juan and his brother were totally bored and

exhausted, complaining about the trip being to long; my brother and I, on

theother hand, were happy and having fun.


We were all excited when we finally we arrived to “La Caleta del Inca”. There

was just one problem: there was spacefor just one car to go down the dirt road

at a time. As we were going down, an enormous truck appeared in front of us.

We had to slowly go by its side, andour truck was just about to fall down the

path. Luckily nothing happened, but the experience was really frightening.

We returned home the same day.Anyway, maybe it wasn’t worth it for Juan’s or his brother to travel a total of six

hours, but it surely was for me. I liked doing something different for a change.
