Penguins and Glaciers

I headed over to the Atlantic coast so I could see some penguins. It was a really windy day but I saw lots of Magellanic penguins.

The penguins were awesome but I headed back west to the mountains. El Calafate was our next stop. It’s a fun town with a great ice cream shop.

The main reason for visiting El Calafate is to see the Perito Moreno Glacier. It’s huge and you can watch big pieces fall off.

I also went to a museum but I was lucky to get out alive as the dinosaur was hungry.

Next it was off to El Chalten and some spectacular mountains

I loved El Chalten because it has beautiful mountains and great food. I had a huge breakfast of waffles, my favourite, with nutella one day. The waffles were almost as good as the steak dinner I had one evening. It was a big meal for a little dog but I ate most of it.
