Hi Ryan here, we are in Glacier National Park in Argentina, 3.5 hours flying time south of Buenos Aires and then 1.5 hours drive to our "Lodge". On the way down here I was seriously doubting my travel planning ability crammed into an Aerolineas Argentina MD83 aircraft (I didn't realize those old planes were still in service) with screaming children. The flight left an hour late and then half way here they announced we would be stopping to get some more fuel! You're joking me, a 3.5 hour flight and they couldn't have filled up with gas before we left. This airline is notorious for this sort of thing.....we fly them 4 more times in the next 2 weeks..yeah! Once we arrived though all was worth while, the landscapes are spectacular and our hotel is located right in front of the glacier and the views are unlike anything we have seen before. Unfortunately, the internet connection here is very slow so we can't post any photos. The rooms here have no phones, or TV so we are calling this the "camping" leg of our trip.
Today we are going "ice trekking" on the glacier and tomorrow we do a boat cruise to view some of the other glaciers in the area.

Hi Guys! Those planes sound worse then the ones we use to fly with into Seymour Inlet, Ugh!
Wish you could post pictures from there, as I bet the sights are spectacular, lucky, lucky guys.
Safe flying and have fun! XO
Hey guys!!! Wow i don't read your blog for a few days and look how much i miss. Sounds like a great trip so far...i can't wait till you add the photos from the Tango show. Marc and Mike look fantastic...seems like the sun down south is treating them well:) Keep up the great updates...and enjoy all the beef and wine as you can. Remember in a couple of weeks its a new year and we can all start fresh then.....:) Take care guys. Stay safe. Hugs! Kristin
Mums the word: Pictures are on their way.
Kristin: There is no problem getting a person's fill of beef here. You should have seen the 'small' steak Ryan ordered for lunch yesterday. It looked like the size and shape of a pound of butter. I'm almost looking forward to vegetables again.
