Last Day in Patagonia

Most of the day was spent looking at the magnificent Perito Moreno Glacier. It’s in Los Glaciares National Park. This park is the 3rd oldest national park in the Americas, Yellowstone is the oldest and Banff in Canada is the second oldest. In 1946 this park had 15 visitors, last year it had over one million. The 97 square mile ice formation is one of the largest in the world and is the only advancing glacier in the world. We saw it from afar, from above, down close to the water level and from a boat! We heard it crack several times, sounded like a large gun shot! Also saw it calve a few times.
