Snow Falling on the Aussies


Ushuaia, Argentina

Today is our last day in Ushuaia. This morning a bunch of the pax went up to the chairlift at the ski

Kristi and Damon seeing snow for the first time

resort. At the top of the chairlift they were able to do some hiking up to a glacier and on the way it started snowing. To you and I, this wouldn’t have been a big deal, but for Kristie and Damon, from Australia, it was the first time they had ever seen snow (or at least, “snow falling from the sky” in Kristie’s words”. So, when they came back they were really excited. These two are a really great couple. They’re always positive and ready to help anybody out at any time. Unfortunately, they’re leaving in Santiago. It would have been nice to have them around when the new passengers come on.

That evening we head back to Rio Grande to give us a head start on going up to Torres del Paine. We cook dinner and then Claire, my Dad and I head out to go bowling and play more pool. I finally break my losing streak and win bowling and pool.
