Glacier Perito Moreno

the next day we visited the glacier Perito Moreno
and actually walked on it!!
it was a really impressive day!
maybe our pictures will give you an idea..

it all started with a 90km ride to get to the glacier,
we first passed the Lake Argentino,
the one which we could also see from our hotelwindow

the last km through the national park, which was already beautiful

we entered the national park, and took some shot along the road.
from a distance it looked like a white spot at the end of the lake
but it´s not untill you get closer,

that the icy spot get´s really impressive

this inmens wall is 30km long about 80 meters high above the water

it´s a very interesting, rough landscape


it´s one of the few glaciers that still grows, about 1 or 2 meters a day
although it loses mass every few minutes,
when big chunks fall off..


a spectacle thats making a tremendous noise



shooting eachother


guess we weren´t the only ones enjoying the great glacier view

smile! together at the other side of the camera-lens

with a boat we went to the other side of the glacier,
passing it´s wall closely

after walking through a forest and over a rocky beach..

we were getting closer and closer to the icy wall,
making it look even more impressive and beautiful

putting on some spike´s

looks like she´s ready to start the mini-trekking




you rather not fall into those holes




guess it´s not necesarry to repeat again
that it was a really beautiful landscape

at the end of the walk our guide cut off some of the glacier ice,
and prepared us a..

whiskey on the glacier rocks.

now that was a real spectacular day!! :)
