Hello

I love this picture, it was taken by my brother in law, it shows my family gathered at the entrance of an-Island, called Aucar, Island of the  souls Navigators, Chiloé. It was taken on summer vacation in February 2019, I don't remember specifically the day. I like the picture because it captures my family happy in a place with beautiful scenery, cozy atmosphere and full of peace also have been the best vacation since we toured different tourist attractions of Chiloé as Aucar Island, the circuits of churches, which are national heritage, the pier of souls, the penguin colony of Puñihuil, Trauco night tour, among others.

Aucar is a small island near Quemchi, in a northern commune of Chiloé. It is also called "The island of the souls Navigators, " because a well-known Chilean writer, born and raised in this place, Francisco Coloane; he baptized it this way because he assimilated the island as a place where the dead were buried, waiting to sail someday.

The island is largely a ceremonial center with a small cemetery. There is also a small church and a botanical garden.
