From here our route gets a little wonky for a number of reasons. Please, bear with me while I try and explain it as succinctly as possible. Also, check out our Our Route So Far page for a handy visual aid. The first reason was that our 90 day Chilean visa was coming to end. […]
Argentina
The Argentinian Coastal Ruta 3 Suprises
After leaving Tierra del Fuego we were faced with a big decision, which road do we take??? When we started our journey, we went south from Buenos Aires and there was one general path, but now heading north, we suddenly had many. We could either choose small roads that cut through the center of Argentina […]
Tierra Del Fuego: The Ends of the Roads
I know it’s been a while. We took a trip back home for two months and had the best intentions of catching up then, but we were pretty busy. Alex is working on a post about our trip home, and we should have it out soon. We are currently in La Paz, Bolivia. We are […]
Argentina’s Great Parks
Again, this is embarrassing, but we are quite behind on our official travel posts. Last time we wrote it was the end of December, and we had just driven the Carretera Austral in Chile, and moving into Argentina. Our “Week in Food“ series, that some will remember, was done during this same time. We rushed a […]
KIDS ONLY: Creatures from Chile and Argentina
I promised my younger readers I would post about the animals we’ve seen and here it is! Thus far we have traveled over 14,000 MILES in Chile and Argentina!!! This is an astounding statistic for me. (I could come up with so many math problems about it) Such a massive distance, we have covered so […]
State of The Rambles: 10 Months In
It’s been a while since we last posted. The adventures have been continuing and the photos are piling up. I feel a bit guilty we haven’t shared in so long. I’ve used this time to post more photos on our Instagram account, but also I needed a break from sharing outwardly to process what’s happening […]
Practicing to be Patagonian Paleontologists
We had an amazing opportunity. With good friends from back home. This is the kind of opportunity people DREAM of. Imagine a private trip to a remote and very special paleontological site and getting an in depth explanations of the flora and fauna fossils exposed in the exposed prehistoric sediments. Following scientists around and getting first […]
FOR KIDS ONLY: Heading Further and Further and Further…SOUTH!
A humongous SHOUT-OUT and THANK YOU to all our KID commentators out there and their TEACHERS!!!! I was flabbergasted when I got an Internet connection today and saw a whopping 23 comments!!! EASILY the most we’ve gotten in one day! I can’t wait to answer all your questions and comments. I’m excited to answer them […]
Day 5 in The Rambling Larder’s Week in Food
This week, I’ve been getting the feeling that Alex is trying to show me up in the kitchen. When we started, we both decided that we would not try and make this food series anything special, just showing our normal routine food. Well she did it again, this time under the guise of our need […]
Day 3 in The Rambling Larder’s Week in Food
Today was a pretty typical day when it comes to food, but not typical with regard to what we did. Today we visited the famed Perito Moreno Glacier. No one comes to Patagonia without seeing the Perito Moreno Glacier. This glacier is one of many coming off the Southern Ice Field, which is the largest […]
