Back from the Fin del Mundo

Patagonia was simply amazing - totally fantastic in every respect. My trip was all I hoped it would/could be.

This is as far as the road will take you in South America and what a road! Mountains, deserts, rainforests, glaciers, lakes and let's not forget the wind. It blows constantly in the south - relentless and bitingly cold at times with speeds that sometimes required us to ride the bike at what felt like 45 degees just to stay on the road.

I'll be updating this blog with more pics and words in due course as I get organised. At the moment, I am nursing a bad cold and a sore leg - yes, I did fall off.. - so plenty of excuses to sit at the PC and get some stuff sorted. A selection of photos can be seen in the right hand side bar and clicking any of them will take you to my Smugmug site with more photos - also here
