Glaciar Perito Moreno

Back in El Calafate, we had to wash all our wet and stinking clothes and thus were "forced" to hang around an entire day in our hotel room, since all the warm clothes were gone. Also our shoes were totally wet and like good German tourists, we walked around in socks and flip flops...

The next day however, clothes were clean, shoes dry and together with a couple from Munich we met during our stormy hike, we rented a car to visit Glaciar Perito Moreno, one of the biggest glaciers fed by the Southern Patagonian Icefield and one of Argentinas biggest tourist attractions. Thus, we actually expected it to be totally overcrowded. There were a lot of tourist buses, but also many walkways with magnificent views of the glacier so that all the tourists were nicely scattered and we did not have to fight for space to take an endless amount of pictures. 

Not much else is to say except that the glacier is truly marvelous and we spend the whole day walking around and watching it from different angles, only intercepted by a boat ride along the edge of the glacier.
