A brief update from rainy Bariloche, where we've arrived to a classic pineapple express. After receiving nine (9) FEET of new snow in the last few days, Bariloche is now getting hammered by rain and fifty degree weather. The forecast is poor for the remainder of our time here, so we're looking into flights to Ushuaia, the southernmost city in the world. South of the Magellan Strait. Tierra del Fuego.
I figure we should rent kayaks and round Cape Horn while we're there.
More when we know what we're doing.
Not one word about which direction the toilets swirl down there. Where are your priorities?
ReplyDeleteThat's a bummer about the weather, but I'm glad to hear you guys are making the most of it. Close haul your rigging, Captain Aubrey!
ReplyDelete9 feet of snow and then rain -- you have GOT to be kidding me?! But I gotta say, traveling to (and hopefully skiing in) the southern most city in the world sounds pretty damn fun. Jealous!
ReplyDeleteI'll give ya a dollar if you try that Cape Horn thing in a sailboat; 50 cents if you try it in a kayak. :P
AP, you may get to say "No, senor. No hay un pinguino in mi maleta" after all!! :)
