Argentina
Argentina, a 3 part journey - arrived from Bolivia in the north west, drove down through wine district and then dived off into Chile. Re-entered down south to go down through Tierre del Fuego. From here we went to Antartica, to then return to travel north to Buenos Aires.

North West Argentina
Dec 22nd 2006 - Jan 4th 2007
North West Argentina  - After driving  hundreds of  miles on dirt roads in Bolivia, we gladly welcomed northern Argentina's well paved roads. The scenery was spectacular. We got to enjoy some great wines, meat and empanadas. New Year's celebrations were in Mendoza with more of the great wine and BBQed meat. 
Deep South, Argentina 12th -21st March
2007
In the deep south it becomes very windy, dark and undulating until you enter Tierra Del Fuego where the mountains, forests and lakes return. The wind stays strong no matter what and only increase out on the Drake Passage. Black Gold or oil is what draws Argentinians here. 
Buenos Aires 22nd-30th March
2007
Buenos Aires spreads over a huge area, luckily most tourist attractions are all in a relatively small area in the city center. Although, some great old architecture peppers the city the overriding feeling is of a tired city passed its heh day. However, being a large multinational city we hunted down curries and sushi not found in most of Central and South America. We also arranged for Hopper to get shipped back to the US.
