Ted's Excellent Pictures Taken In Argentina, Uruguay, and Iguazu
November 2003
Buenos Aires:
Casa Rosada ("Pink House") - office of the president
Sunday market in San Telmo (oldest barrio of Buenos Aires)
Speaking of Tango...
They seem to have confused Poseidon with Popeye!
La Estancia satisfies my inner caveman
Rest of Argentina:
North of Buenos Aires:
Valle de la Luna ("Valley of the Moon"), San Juan Province
Talampaya National Park, La Rioja Province
"The Cathedral"
"The Chimney"
"Man on a camel"
"The Monk"
"The Tortoise"
South of Buenos Aires:
Penguin holiday camp - I mean, Penguin wildlife preserve - at Punta Tombo peninsula, Chubut Province
With over half a million, it's "the largest colony of Magellanic penguins in the world"
Great Glaciers and Big Blue Bergs at Parque Nacional Los Glaciares, Santa Cruz province (Patagonia)
Perito Moreno is 30km long; at this end it is 5km wide and 170m (558ft) high with 74m (240ft) above water (Argentino Lake)
Spegazzini Glacier
Across the Rio de la Plata from Buenos Aires, in Uruguay:
Colonia del Sacramento historic quarter
El faro - lighthouse - in the background
Ah, the good ol' days - when cars were simple ...
and the internet was something you had to hunt down in the shops in every city & town, and pay for by the minute!
Iguazu Falls (Cataratas del Iguazú):
Ask for a window seat: airliners circle the falls before landing, giving these incredible views
Brazil on the left (north); Argentina on the right (south)
Looking the other way as we are halfway through a full 360°
If you liked the view from the airplane, you'll love the view from a chopper!

Garganta del Diablo ("Devil's Throat")
You can get up close on the Argentinian side ...
... and get the overall view from the Brazilian side
