Went on a long walk up a mountain to see a view of all the volcanoes. Two puppies adopted us on the way and stayed with us for most of the 18km / 1200m gain hike (they were so sleepy by the end theyЧитать далее
Путешественник They're great photos - the colour is really vivid - looks like the air is really clean and the visibility wonderful. Chile looks really beautiful. I'm sure Sam wanted to take the dogs back with him!

Supposedly the best city in Chile to live - we think we agree. The sea lions make it.

I drove 2163 km around northern Patagonia and Chiloé island (next time we'll also insure Sam, that was a lot of driving).
Had some crazy roads/gravel, snow, dust, and luckily some sunshine. We wereЧитать далее

Exploradores glacier.
Catedral de mármol / marble caves.
Our maximum distance reached on the same road (actually 850 km but there wasn't a sign at that point).
Путешественник So well worth all the driving to see the marble caves and the glacier. Amazing photos.

One of few glaciers in the world that isn't shrinking. 4.4km wide at the front part, up to 70m above the water and 200m below.
Путешественник Amazing - and the bit that breaks off must be pretty big!

Путешественник More penguins! And great to see Boaty McBoatface. Where's Santi? Is it too cold for sloths?
Путешественник It is too cold for sloths, and we thought slightly risky in case a penguin decided to adopt him!
Путешественник Great photos - looks like brilliant trekking country .
Путешественник Looks absolutely beautiful. What height did you go up to? You obviously found some snow so it must be a bit chilly for camping.
Путешественник Not too high, only about 1300m. But yes, it got to about freezing overnight, bit chilly! The days are generally in the teens though
