El Calafate, Argentina

We´re pretty much at the bottom of the planet. So cool. We took a 3 1/2 hour flight on Aerolineas ($200 roundtrip) from Bs As into El Calafate today. Not much has happened since the last post, but we are in a fancy-shmance hostel (El Calafate Hostel) with free internet access IN our room, so why not take advantage. Tomorrow we head out to the Perito Moreno glacier. Not yet sure if we are walking on it (in crampons nonetheless - how pads appropriate), or just staring at it. If it is the former, we might be dangerously close to sinking it as we have just ingested yet another enormous, delicious meal for under $30. The middle aged couple sitting next to us at the restaurant was celebrating a bumple and shared their flaming tiramisu with us. Tomorrow is Jen´s bumple. Yet another excuse for a fat-ass meal. More tomorrow.

PS - We leave the country for 5 days and all hell breaks loose at the Scientology Center? Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes?? WTF. His star has officially fallen. Ande called that two years ago.

PSS - Um, is that Ashley Simpson singing that Led Zeppelin song? Maybe that song will only get released outside the US.

PSS - Jen is lying in her bed simultaneously trying to mainline dulce de leche and find non-Spanish dubbed Titanic on the TV. We have a TV. So fancy.
