Chile!
|
Chile is considered the Swiss of South America. It is a beautiful country
great for camping and tracking. I traveled in Chile most of the time
with Tomer and Lior, but I started alone. The picture is of active
volcano Vilarica. My first view of Chile out of the capital
Santiago.
|
|
I did not give up climbing that volcano. I never say NO to an possible
adventure. Well, it looked easy to climb, but you never reach the top.
|
|
But I did finally reach it when the clouds where well below me.
|
|
This is the sine of one of the National Parks. The Vilarica
volcano is at the horizon.
|
|
As I reached my second week of my trip, Chile did not bore me in
anyway. I encountered new sines everyday. And except for that one
cloud that kept chasing us with rain, the weather was wonderful.
|
|
I continued south and reached Torres Del Pine national park.
I tracked there with Tomer for 5 days. Unfortunately I forgot my
camera when I climbed to the Torres. This is a picture of the
park with it's lake's amazing the silver color.
|
|
South... there was Puerto Arenas. The south most I ever got.
There were the cute penguin, of course.
|
|
The day before Lior and me took a boat ride to Laguna San Rafael
we had our great adventure at nature.
|
|
On arrival to the laguna we were lowered to the small life boat. It
was terrible weather! Raining and freezing. But the Brandy was a
life saver.
|
|
Then came the the amazing views of icebergs made us forget all our worries.
|
|
Finally, a view of just a road. The locals didn't understand what
is the big deal.
