  • Kayaking in Bariloche

    We went kayaking in Bariloche.

    image

    Matt was in the back.

    image

    The angry birds actually camouflage pretty well in the rocks and branches on the shore. Much better than on green grass anyway.

    image

    There were mountains everywhere but it was cloudy.

    image

    And a bit chilly

    image

    We saw a fox

    image

    But we didn’t have a good camera because kayaks are wet.

    image

    And we were far away

    image

    Because kayaks are slow.

  • Bariloche Church

    The church in Bariloche is weird.

    image

    It has these fancy stone like parts.

    image

    Around the stained glass windows.

    image

    But also a whole lot of bare concrete with rebar sticking out.

    image

    The art was weird to.

    image

    We missed the Bible story where old Jesus tries to give baby Jesus a high five.

    image

    From most angles it looks like Jesus is wearing a baseball cap.

    image

    You have to get right down next to him to see his face.

  • Seagull

    The wind was very strong in Bariloche.

    image

    This seagull was flying as hard as he could.

    image

    And getting absolutely nowhere.

    image

    So Kerri took roughly a billion pictures of him.

    image

    He didn’t understand why.

    image

    He’s just a seagull.

    image

    Minding his own business.

    image

    Soaring majestically.

    image

    She is such a strange human.

    image

    It’s probably best to keep away from her.

    image

    But that would require successfully flying away.

    image

    Which he really couldn’t do.

    image

    He was basically stationary.

    image

    Was he having fun?

    image

    Kerri was.

  • Cerro Campanario

    Cerro Campanario is a big hill we climbed.

    image

    It has good views of the lakes.

    image

    And back at the town.

    image

    There were condors soaring around.

    image

    But not over the prettier side.

    image

    Condors like the mountains.

    image

    Not the pretty lakes.

    image

    But they also like to eat rotting dead things.

    image

    So we don’t trust their taste.

    image

    We took a lot of pictures.

    image

    It was hard work to get to the top.

    image

    And we didn’t want to waste it.

    image

    There was a doghouse at the top.

    image

    Next to the gondola that the smart people took up.

    image

    But we’re not that smart.

  • Bariloche

    This is Bariloche.

    image

    From our balcony.

    image

    It is very pretty.

    image

    The water in the lake is very clear.

    image

    The mountains still have snow on them.

    image

    The town is on a hill next to the lake.

    image

    Some days the wind was stronger and the water got a bit rougher.

    image

    This angry bird had a chick but wouldn’t let us get close for some reason.
