This is Bariloche.
From our balcony.
It is very pretty.
The water in the lake is very clear.
The mountains still have snow on them.
The town is on a hill next to the lake.
Some days the wind was stronger and the water got a bit rougher.
This angry bird had a chick but wouldn’t let us get close for some reason.
We didn’t take many pictures in Buenos Aires.
This was a park
This was a bookstore.
That used to be a theatre
We picked up some cash because some hotels require cash.
That’s a bit over $1000 Canadian. They only had $1000 peso bills which are basically $1 Canadian. The biggest bills they print are about $20, but they are hard to get. To pay for a week at a hotel took a lot of counting.
It takes up a lot of space in our backpacks.
Day 6 was also rainy
But at least it was mostly flatish
Matt was still unimpressed
So was Kerri, but Matt was too unimpressed to take pictures so there is no evidence of that.
The glacier got further and further away
But you could still see it with a zoom
It was bluer than the sky
It was also very windy
This is not Lago Gray
But it is a lake
Huh, Matt did get a picture of Kerri
Toward the end of the day the sky got a little blue
And then more blue
But not in the direction of the famously picturesque mountain
The water was still falling.
Foolish tourists were still sailing into it.
The plants were still drowning.
It was still very pretty.
We were still taking pictures.
And getting misted.
The birds were still chirping.

The tegus were still skittering

The butterflies were still swarming around puddles trying to get salt.

But eventually we left and took a picture of three countries. We are in Argentina, across to the right is Brazil and across to the left is Paraguay.
Those rivers don’t mix either, and the division between them is way more obvious than the one in the Amazon everyone gets so excited about.
This is water.
When gravity pulls it it moves down.
When it reaches a cliff it falls.
This attracts large quantities of animals known as tourists.
Scientists still don’t know why waterfalls attract tourists.
It seems to have something to do with cell phones.
Cell phones can make the waterfall look sharp
Or blurry, without so much as a tripod or filter
But they’re basically just faking it.
Which takes all the fun out of it.
But that doesn’t stop Matt.
Blurry.
Sharp.
Blurry.
Sharp.
Blurry.
Sharp.
I just want to remind everyone this isn’t Kerri’s fault.
This is all Matt
