Obviously I (Matthew) am now the happiest bunny in the world as it is cold and there is wind and there are mountains and lakes and lots of pretty landscapes. Which I will use as an excuse for my poor standard of English. Things this exciting and beautiful are just too interesting to be written about in boring prose! Harriet from this point will now write. The photos though are mine (bar the ones of me)!
Bariloche is simply Geneva but in SA. There are cuddly St Bernards, oodles of chocolate and hotels uniquely named "Edelweiss". The scenery is stunning. Shame about Matt and his burning desire to take a photo from every angle conceivable of the said scenery.
Had a particularly fun time taking Mum up and down three chairlifts (by the way the best way to climb a mountain). Turns out she was mildly afraid - lol! I did my best to reassure her by jumping up and down like a crazy loon.
(Matt again) The next day we had the pleasure of visiting an enchanted forest - the name was a very clever marketing ploy. We saw no signs of enchantedness-ness nor of the promised Bambi. The trees were very cool though but clashed a bit with my hair as they had a kind of orangey hue.
Also had to really slum it in a terrible hotel, didn't have the best view ever or an infinity pool or a sauna - oh wait yeah it did. Was AMAZING!
