And lo! On the third day the sun shone and gloomy Polly went for a walk. More of a real hike really - it took 6 hours though it wasn't tough going. Even if had been it would still count as one of the most memorable experiences of my life.
Words can't really do it justice - suffice to say I wandered through beech woods bursting into autumn colours and emerged by a little blue river with huge rocky snowy mountains towering above a lake with a frosty glaciar running over it.The scenery was so dramatic and exciting I could hardly breathe or stop the tears falling.
If I'd come all the way, 15 thousand kilometres, from Spain to Patagonia just to walk this walk it would have been worth the ride (two flights, three taxi rides, two buses and one ferry).
Fantastic photos - I love the wooden path through the trees.
