And we are off! Roberto dropped us at the bus station and we said goodbye. It was sad to see him leave on his own to the airport but the bus timings didn’t allow us to wave him goodbye at the airport.. Boys didn’t complain at all that we were to embark on another busContinue reading “Back on the road!”

Sunsets and tea at the clubhouse!
Our house here in Llao Llao is surrounded by a golfcourse and early morning you can see from our bedroom window, the ladies and gentlemen playing a round of golf. It is too idilic for words because the clubhouse is just around the corner. We were told it is a beautiful place to enjoy aContinue reading “Sunsets and tea at the clubhouse!”
A day of kayaking!
This morning when we woke up late, the sun was shining! Roberto had already made breakfast something which he does almost every day. We sort of gotten into a routine and as he is also on a jet lag it works out well. 🙂 Once we all were up and running, we took the carContinue reading “A day of kayaking!”
Asada!
What is Argentina without meat??!! And asadas are so much fun! We have done plenty of asadas on this trip so far and every place and dish is different. I love the whole process of collecting the wood, marinating the meat, getting the music ready, have a glass of wine and see it all comeContinue reading “Asada!”

Toto has arrived and that means; ” VAMANOS!!!!”. And so we set off for a hike to refugio Berghof. It took us a little while before we had found the path that would lead us to ” el refugio”, but once we were on it there was no return! It was already quite hot andContinue reading “A hike with Toto!”
Bariloche!
When looking at these pictures, it almost feels I am back in Europe. Maybe somewhere in Austria or Zwitserland but we have found this most beautiful cottage just a few kilometers outside of Bariloche in a place called Llao Llao. We have a stunning few over the lake which is only 10 meters awayContinue reading “Bariloche!”
Route 40!
Argentina’s legendary Ruta 40, is one of the world’s great driving adventures, running parallel to the Andes Mountains for nearly 5,000 km. The southern portion of the route is most famous, highlighted by the 1,400 km stretch through Patagonia from El Calafate to the the Lake District in Bariloche. We decided to embark onContinue reading “Route 40!”
Horse riding with a local gaucho!
The horse riding this afternoon is probably one of my favourite experiences so far on the trip. Doing this all together as a family was really special. We joined a few others for a 2 hour long ride through the Patagonian countryside. The scenery was mind blowing with views over Lake Argentina and the mountains.Continue reading “Horse riding with a local gaucho!”
Perito Moreno!
And there we are standing, in front of Perito Moreno, something we had been looking forward to see so much! We had been talking about the visit to the Glacier National Park with the boys way back in Sri Lanka when we were still in the process of giving shape and content to our tripContinue reading “Perito Moreno!”
El Calafate!
We left Buenos Aires around mid day to the airport to catch our flight to El Calafate. Yesterday, was the first day of the New Year and we stayed home. Relaxed and packed our bags. Did some homework and had our last dinner at “home”. The night before, we had been in touch with friendsContinue reading “El Calafate!”
