Hi, yes it is us again. If you think we have nothing else to do.. you are right... today we have "free time" in the afternoon :-) ... in the morning we visited "glacier perito moreno" another glacier which is very big. but in contrary to the one we saw in the national park we didn´t have to sweat and work for it, but instead we were carried there by a tourist bus (iiiiiiihhhh!!) yes, indeed but there is no other possiblity here because this town seems to be created entirely for tourists visting this famous glacier, which may not miss from any travel itinerary of every tourist tour... the average age is about 50, the prices are high for everything: buses, hotels, food... so we will continue tomorrow as soon as possible to "El Chalten", which is still "touristy" but the starting point for a trek in the national park "los glaciares" where we want to trek arount Fitz Roy and Cerro Torre.. if the weather is fine and allows trekking.
Yesterday we decided to save money by using the local campground instead of an expensive hotel (of which we thought we were now used to ;-) - an idea which we regretted bitterly later - and instead spend all our daily budget on food ...hehe.... Mirko had on of these mega thick beef-steaks and I had a very good and exotic salad in a very nice restaurant.... mmmmhhh...
today we changed the plan and will sleep in a hostal instead... :-)
wish you a nice weekend!
Renate y Mirko
Welcome!
Hi to all of you! Welcome to our Blog!
We are looking forward to our journey and we are also looking forward to telling you all about it :-)
That's maybe because we are sadistic (yes - defenitely) but it could turn out that instead, we will show you - from time to time - how nice, cosy and warm it can be at home in comparison to freezing in a tent on a mountain or getting soaked by rain while waiting for the d... bus to pick us up in the middle of nowhere... depends on the places we will stumble into, the people we will meet and the experieces which are in wait for us....
So everybody of us can be a winner at some point in time during our journey! don't miss it when it's your turn at home :-)
And ... don't you forget us !
You can be sure that we will miss you all ....

Hallo Renate, nachdem Du nächste Woche hohen Besuch aus Rot versäumst, musste ich mal nachschauen, was Du so treibst :-))Ihr habt ja in der kurzen Zeit schon einiges erlebt. Tolle Bilder!!! Warum gönnst Du Dir nach 8 Tagen Trekking nicht auch ein lekkeres Steak :-))
Sonnige Grüße aus Wien,
Hermine
