Adios Argentina y Hola Chile- En Fotos

In hopefully chronological order we will try to throw up a few photos of our past few weeks:

Tracy at a river we hiked to from our farm in Epuyen, Argentina. A large forest fire burned out this area a few years back, so the growth is all new. We got to hear interesting stories of the small community pulling together in response to the fire.


Adam´s favorite job on th farm. Loosens the soil very nicely before planting. Broccoli, lettuce, and raddishes went in this plot afterwards.



Tracy in our little bedroom at the Epuyen farm. The brick/clay oven in the background was used for much of our baking.


Adam crossing a bridge on our way to the cajon azul. The bridge is actually more rickety than it looks. Many of the planks were broken making us wonder who the poor soul was that had the unpleasant experience of breaking it over the icy river.


Our ultimate destination, the Cajon Azul. Beautiful little canyon near El Bolson, Argentina.


Adam back to milking sheep for delicious cheese.


We successfully crossed into Chile and made it to the Chiloe Islands. This is our campsite, which is breathtakingly beautiful. We are in the town of Ancud.


Tracy ordered what we knew to be the local special, "curanto." We did not know exactly what it was. Tracy had the restaurant taking bets on whether or not she could finish it (nope, not even with Adam´s help).



Speaking of food, we had another Chile specialty our first night. We cannot remember the name, but it was a bed of french fries covered in cheese, hot dogs, beef tips, italian sausage, dill pickles, pickled carrots and cauliflower, mayonaise, mustard, hot sauce, and boiled eggs. Organic it was not, bloody AWESOME, it was.

This morning we rode a fishing boat out to a penguin colony and a sea lion colony. Very beautiful, interesting and incredible creatures to see up close. We really did take these pictures from the boat.
