Puerto Natales to El Calafate


After arriving to El Calafate, I took a boat tour in the national park to see some glaciers.
It was the first time I saw a glacier,
and I can tell'ya that the size of the glaciers was indeed amazing - complete mountains of ice.

Some of the icebergs (parts of ice that have been detached from the glacier) we encountered had funny shapes, and their size was also impressive, especially since what you see above the water is just a small part of the whole iceberg (about 10%).
