South America in 30 Days

---

Well the planning is coming together - but LAN keep changing the timetables for the connecting flights that I have spent a long time putting the finishing touches to. The internet has proved to be a great facility in organising flights, tours, hotels, and airport transportation. If everything goes pear shaped I will be lost without access to a computer!

WE have been through the passport and visa details (none needed - visas that is) and a visit to the quack has resulted in an update of the heath passport and yellow fever jabs and a prescription for Malarone malarial tablets - what a price these are! and not available on the national health, although it will cost them thousands to treat you if you come back with malaria! Still no risks!.

Our plans are to visit Sao Paulo and Rio de Janeiro in Brazil, Buenos Aires and Barioche, in Argentina, Puerto Montt and Santiago de Chile in Chile then up to Lima in Peru for some R & R. then to Cuzco and then on to Machu Picchu. The homeward leg sees us back to Buenos Aires and then a trip up to the Iguazu Falls and then back to the UK via Sao Paulo. Well that's the plan, but we are flexible so keep watching this space to see how things progress.

What do we think of it so far?
As they used to say: What do we think of it so far? - Rubbish! Not really. Looking forward to the first report from Sao Paulo and hoping you will keep going for 30 days (the blogging that is, as well as the travelling). Bon voyage.
