Come along on a South American Odyssey

A tour at Christmas of 2002 took me to four of the largest South American countries for exposure to a new culture. That odyssey took me to Buenos Aires and Bariloche, Argentina; Puerto Varas, Puerto Montt and Santiago, Chile and Iguazu and Rio de Janeiro, Brazil.

Along the way I got to see some amazing sights, learned more about the history of the three countries and met more nice people. It was a real learning experience. While I don't speak Spanish I have been exposed to it enough that I could at least understand signs and do basic communication.

I'd like to share that experience with you through some photos taken along the way. The topic areas are noted below and are links to those pages. There are navigation links at the bottom of the pages. Come along to those places below:
