16/3 No rest for the wicked We decided on leaving straight away and a bus to El Calafete in the morning and back to I Kue Ken for 2 nights. They had the asado just before and just after our visit. No asado for us. We explored the small town, if i was to describe it i would say its a small snow village, full of the attitudes and cafes and bars that go with it. 17/3 Watching ice melt We head to glacier Perito Marino, which is one of the only glaciers in the worl...

11/03/13 - 15/03/13 Day 1 hotel las Torres to campamento Torres and to the towers. 9.5km and 2km return to camp = 11.5 km We took a very cold bus from town to Torres del Paine, register and change to a smaller bus to get to hotel Torres del Paine on the eastern side. We met up with a German couple and Eric, all which we met at lili patagonicos on the first day in puerto nutalis. The 9.5km upto the campsite with full bags was really difficult, I understood bot...

8/3 P-nutty back on another bus, this from El Calafete to Puerto Natales (P-nutty), as usual it was well over time!! A place called El Living made a great veg curry (there was unfortunately no meat) and chai latte. This style of spices and home style tea like that brought a smile to both of our faces. When we arrive at the hostel, we get upgraded to a nice 3 bed dorm, like a family room with a bunk and large single. We take the low ones, great beds!! in Lili Pata...

To Patagonia Urrrrr, wake up at 4am after a lovely night last night, not a happy start. Taxi running late but check-in was lovely and ignored each bag being overweight. The plane trip was interesting, a 747 where I think 40% of people knew each other. It was more like a bar, with people changing seats, standing in the aisle and chatting, possible the friendliest and loudest plane we have ever been on, from food service to landing. In El Calafate we walked up th...

A later start with what we thought was all the time in the world till the 7:30pm night bus to BA. Had some old toast and jam (I accidentally ate marmalade), tang and tea and coffee, not our best breakfast. We decided to save money and take a few busses to the small town of San ignacio for the Jesuit missions solo. A local bus, baggage storage and a regional bus later (around 70km away) we walked around an old town and the mission ruins. The ruins were in the midd...
