The Glacier Perito Moreno, behind me in Patagonia, Argentina. February 2003. We visited the Estancia Cristina next to Lago Argentino. Cristina was the daughter of a shepperd who traveled from England to this area which had lots of sheep. The wool industry was a great commodity. Cristina got very ill due to the windy cold winters and died of lung disease. We ate a delicious asado de carnero, (lamb roasted), in the typical argentinian style. This region is very turistic. I stayed in Calafate, overviewing Lake Argentino, the aqua blue lake, which reflects the colors of the sky, even when it is pink, yellow-orange...A calafate is a plant like blueberries, I ate some.
