2012 PRINCESS = RIO TO SAN FRANCISCO
on hasbeen's travel map.
FROM PUNTA ARENAS A SMALL GROUP OF US WILL BUS TO THE SMALL LOCAL AIRPORT & TAKE TWO SMALL PLANES TO PORT NATALES.
FROM THERE WE BUS TO TORRES DEL PAINE, CONTINUE ON THOUGH THE PARK & HAVE A MEAL AT A RESTAURANT SITUATED ON AN ISLAND IN A LAKE.
THEN FLY BACK TO THE SHIP IN PUNTA ARENAS.
IT'S A VERY LONG WAY TO GET A PHOTO OF A MOUNTAIN.
TORRES DEL PAINE
THE SHORT VERSION
THAT'S IT - YOU CAN STOP READING NOW.

THE LONGER VERSION
OUR DRIVER...
FLYING A LITTLE CLOSE TO THE ROCKS, AREN'T WE DRIVER?
SOME WILDLIFE ON THE WAY. WE DID SPOT ONE CONDOR BUT TOO FAR AWAY FOR A PHOTO.
THESE ARE GUANACOS....
CAN'T SEE WHAT ALL THE FUSS IS ABOUT....
THAT IT FOR THE TORRES DEL PAINE - NOW IT'S TIME TO EAT..
THERE HAS BEEN A HUGE FIRE HERE THAT IS STILL BURNING IN SOME PARTS. WE HAD TO SKIP ONE SMALL SECTION OF OUR TOUR AS IT WAS NOT SAFE...
THAT'S OUR RESTAURANT...
AND BACK HOME SAFE & SOUND, AFTER A WONDERFUL, TIRING DAY.
