El Calafate


Going north from Tierra del Fuego on the Chilean side, we took a bus ride to el Calafate, home of the Perito Moreno Glaciar in Parque Nacional Los Glaciares.


This Glacier National Park is a bit different that the one in Montana. As in, the Perito Moreno was ENORMOUS, the pictures just can't give you the best impression of it's 60 plus meter height. No joke. And when the ice randomly fell off the side, the splash would be huge, also.


It was a lovely day, and Bonnie and I traveled with an Israeli girl from the hostel who insisted we could also be Israeli (and actually initially spoke to me in Hebrew, as did the hostel worker and our roommates, because apparently I could really be from Israel. Masseltov!!!).
