Look ive posted lots of Pictures!!

Buenos Tardes chicos y chicas. We are in buenos airies got here yesterday after a sweet 36 hour bus ride.....got a bit of a cold now though which is weird because its 35 degrees here...Anyway im going to update my blog and the upload connection is tres quick so ill post a few more than the usual "select" few pix for your viewing pleasure!! (if youre interested, if youre not dont worry just click back a couple of times to get back to your hotmail account :o) )
hmm so yer since my last entry weve done a lot...went walking in bariloche...got bus down to el calafate via rio gallegos (i tres cant pronounce the latter), we saw this massive glacier called the morino glacier..which apparently is advancing at 2 metres a day...but crumbling off at same rate thus attaining equilibrium...kapeesh!!?? good. So yer that was a nice sight cool to see bits of ice the size of buses fall off into water........but to be fair got a bit boring after a while i have to admit. Then the next day we got bus into chile (not far about 4 hours) and set about preparing for this trek in tores del paine. Yer so that was ace. After that we got back to town and stuffed our fat faces with steak. Then the next day we set off on a mammoth journey to Buenos Airies...It would have been nice to stop at Puerto Madryn and check out the peninsula to see killer wales eating seals but alas no time unfortunately...we´re here for 5 days..out on the lash tonight!! thats it ill update this again just before or in india with the LOW down on the last 10 days on this great continent. Kind regards...


me looking smug sitting on a boat...i wasnt trying to look smug i think ive just got a bit of a fat face.













the infamous "Dog smoking a ciggy" attraction in bariloche........

.....Ok it was me who moved the ciggy butt close to its mouth cos i thought it would be funny.









Chuiripan.

pan with churisa in it. ergo churipan.

walking in bariloche it was hot and we didnt bring enough water....luisa swore at us for "making" her walk up the big hill.










The Morino Glacier. It does exactly what it says on the tin.
















An Ensemble of pix from Tores Del Paine....which translates to "towers of pain" ...or "hours of pain" as i call it.






























<---- The Towers of Pain!! (and me dressed really badly in backwards cap and silly tourist t-shirt)...one of the wardens told us he has free climbed the middle one....madness.



































Me looking completely nails...although worryingly like i have really fat legs...i hope it was the wind inflating them...the trousers not the legs.....(it was tres windy)..........ok ok ive got fat legs havent i....










Respect Glacier Grey!












Night Bus "madness".....
