We had a full day to spend exploring the area around Ushuaia, the southernmost city in the world, before leaving on our cruise to Antarctica. We took a taxi to a ski lift which took us up to the Martial Glacier. Being early summer, there was still quite a bit of snow on the glacier, although there was enough meltwater to create lovely streams running down the mountainside. Quite a nice way to get acclimated to the southern season, I think.Monday, July 27, 2009

I am so jealous of all the amazing places you had been able to travel. It seems like every picture you post is adding a new distination to my list of places to see. I can't wait until the kids are a bit older and we can start showing them the world :)
ReplyDeleteThat is fun, but don't wait until they're too old, then all they want to do it sit in the hotel and watch TV. :D
