Hello, dear Hivers!

Today I come to tell you about another Saturday outing!

My dad had been wanting to take us to Cerro el Ávila for a while, but he hadn't been able to... until now!

We woke up already mentally prepared for the trip (my mom is not friends of heights) a, so we had a good breakfast, got ready, and went to the cable car station.

Everything there was very pretty. It was a kind of preamble, hehe.
We stood in line, and when it was time to buy the tickets, I handed over my student ID, thanks to which, they gave us a great discount!

When it was time to get on the cable car, my mom and I were a little nervous, because we had never done anything like that before, but those nerves were nothing compared to what we felt, once inside, when the cable car started to accelerate.

Leaving that aside, the ride was very peaceful. We saw all the vegetation on the mountain, and it was really impressive. Very beautiful!

The trip took about 15 minutes, and the closer we got to our destination, the colder it got. Thank goodness I dressed in two pants, two sweaters, and a cardigan, lol.

I was a little scared when we arrived because it was sooo cold. However, once we got to the open-air space, the weather was warmer.

---

We saw many kiosks selling strawberries with cream, hot chocolate, candy bars, caramel apples, candy, and many other things.
There were also fast food stands.

---

We also saw many artists! There was a living statue, some acrobats, some musicians, and even a Charlie Chaplin impersonator, who invited me to be part of his show! It was a very funny part of the trip.

We went up to the Humboldt Hotel, and it was even warmer there, so I took off my cardigan and one of my sweaters (I still had to put them on once I got downstairs).

There we found a fantastic place to take pictures, you could see all of Caracas from there, but it was scary to get on it, because it was a bit tilted, hahaha.

---

Having finished the tour, we returned to the kiocos at the beginning, bought some snacks, and sat down to rest.

---

There was a moment during the tour when I saw a very pretty little town. It was very moving, because there was also some nice music playing in the background, haha. I thought "I would like to live there when I retire," hehe.

---

After resting a bit, we went to see the ice rink, and even though we didn't dare to skate, we saw some very good skaters! They really surprised me.

---

On our way back, we found a store selling 100% Venezuelan handcrafted products. All very pretty! And I left there with a pair of new earrings!!!

---

We had lunch, my parents drank some wine, and we saw more shows by the acrobats. Receiving a gentle breeze and a priceless feeling of peace... everything felt so surreal!

Everything was so beautiful, one of those moments that you want to never forget!
