In Patagonia

Well, we´ve made it to Patagonia, and guess what? You know how they talk about the weather being wet, wild, and crazy down here? They´re not kidding. It´s been raining and snowing and blowing sideways since we arrived yesterday afternoon in Puerto Natales. Tomorrow we´re headed into Torres del Paine National Park and hoping pretty badly that the weather turns, and we get a respite from the storms. It's no joke down here, but we´re well-equipped and experienced enough to handle it. The question is are we tough enough. The other question is will it be enjoyable. We'll see and check back in a week or so.

By the way, just watched the NCAA championship game on the laptop of the owner of our hostel through their WiFi connection. It's a flat world.

Adios!

Wow you really made me envious to visit NZ- it sounds perfect. Loved reading all your reflective thoughts on traveling and people, so true. Your wine adventure reminded me of when John and I went to the Napa Valley- something about the lifestyle of owning a winery-pretty cool.
Enjoy your time in South America.
Take care,
Janine
