Arriving at El Calafate to experience the real Patagonia we find that like all Argentinian towns the place is full of dogs (who are all quite friendly). We quickly establish Alpha dog status and form a small pack where ever we walk.
El Calafate is really close to the Patagonian Ice Fields, hence we stop off to visit the Moreno Glacier. Not only do we get to take a boat next to the edge of the glacier, we don some crampons and actually head out hiking on the moving glacier (thanks James & Naomi).
After some steep climbs and weird yet amazing scenery we finally come over a bit more ice to discover a little table with glasses which are prompty filled with whiskey and glacier ice freshly ice-picked off the surface. Very Very Cool.
