2012 - STAR PRINCESS - TORRES DEL PAINE


View 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.
