Return to Argentinia........

 The quickest means of going from the Chilean Patagonia to Perito Moreno glacier in the Argentinian Los Glaciares National Park is by taking a long drive through very flat wind blasted grasslands. Nothing of particular interest to see...



.........but we did get to stop at a sheep farm and got to see a shearing!

Lunch being prepared!


We had a demonstration of how their dogs round up the sheep.....




..and then onto a shearing.........

There were absolutely no neighbors for miles! 

Out destination was El Calafate the main ( and possibly only!) place to stay to visit Los Glaciares National park....

The following day we got to see the amazing glacier  Perito Moreno......still a lot of ice there!







We did see and hear some glacier calving.....noisy.
