Sorry again for the lack of action on the blog recently - we have had some technical difficulties with photos and with slow internet access to boot it´s been slow progress but the pics are now finally all ready to be published! Unfortunately the pics of Iguazu falls and Buenos Aires won´t be ready for a while as the pics are waiting to be copied to Mike´s ipod which is slowly dying!

After Buenos Aires, which was great (we´re going back ina few weeks tas it was so good), we took a flight south to Patagonia where we spent an amazing couple of weeks, visiting a huge glacier (the only one in the world that is growing) and then a great national park on the Argentinian side before going into the Chilean side and spending a few days at another awesome national park before taking a 4 day boat trip up through the Chilean fjords! The trip was amazing (apart from seasickness one night!) - great views despite some average weather, lots of space on board as it´s slow season, and some really great people that we ended up travelling with to the next detinations - Bariloche (a taste of Switzerland in Argentina!) and Mendoza where we tried some really good wines a la Sideways.

All in all we´re having a great time, Argentina has been an incredible place to visit and we´re looking forward to making the most of our last fews weeks in South America before it´s up to San Francisco for 4th July which should great fun!
