Second time around but still stunning




Judy and Johannes from a week or so ago pitched up in El Calafate having dumped the bikes on the east coast and hired a car. So this morning with 4 of us in the car and Graham riding we headed for the Perito Moreno Glacier. I saw it for the first time about 8 years ago and there were far fewer tourists or facilities at the glacier. That said it was still an amazing sight and just as beautiful. It is one of the few glaciers in the world that is not retreating unlike those on the Antarctica Peninsular which are retreating at 10 metres per year.
