hi everyone, I am writing to you from Ushuaia, the city at the end of the world...it is absolutely gorgeous! After leaving Jujuy, went to Puerto Madryn and the Valdes Penninsula. What an experience to go to a penguin colony and see thousands of penguins in their natural habitat. It was such a memorable experience. Here in Ushuaia, we went to the Tierra del Fuego national park, which is spectacular.
Tomorrow we leave for Calafate, where the Perito Moreno glacier is. I cannot wait.
Bill, you will LOVE Argentina. It is an amazing country, filled with beautiful landscape and friendly people.
While in Buenos Aires last month I met up with arthurg from MadridMan, and we were able to have a delicious dinner together. He loved Buenos Aires too!
Salta is a really great destination. From there you must go north to Jujuy and go to the Quebrada de Humahuaca, to the towns of Purmamarca and Tilcara. The region of Salta also has some beautiful landscapes to explore. You will love Salta as a city too. We have stayed at the
Hotel Salta , right on the plaza 9 de julio. I would recommend it very highly, for location and for charm.
Keep posting about your plans! I know you will be happy to have experienced Argentina.
