Amazing Patagonia 2. Perito Moreno Glacier Bashny.Net

To reach the glacier Perito Moreno is very simple. If you rented a car, you just need to get to the city of El Calafate, and then follow the signs to go to the glacier. The journey takes about 2 hours, and maybe even less. If you have no car, you just need to reach the city center and you will see that it was created only for two purposes: to eat or take the person to the Perito Moreno Glacier and El Chalten. So confused you do not succeed - the city is dotted with a "tourist booths" where you sell a ticket anywhere you want, and not be somehow cheat or cheat. Service is very developed, and the first time I see such an attitude to this matter.
The plane flies to the city of El Calafate. Article "El" can not add, but so decided. It is located near a large lake named Argentino (a). Apparently, it is fed by glaciers and why we see such an unusual color of water.








The airport is located 4 kilometers from the city and so you need to buy a ticket for mini bus directly at the airport and did not have anything to do with the driver. Very comfortably. Bags fill up a small trailer and drove off.
Desert terrain than what is similar to Australia, only without the red color of the iron. Every now and then, on the edges of the road running ostriches.





Here is the color. The lakes of glacial origin are beginning to cast different colors in times of bad weather, when at the same time there is sun and clouds.
Is not it beautiful?



And here is the El Calafate. As you can see - some restaurants and "travel agencies».







When the bus came to the glacier, the weather was not the best, but it should not be upset, in Patagonia the weather is changing every half hour.



























But already, and the sun came out and the glacier showed itself in all its glory. Everything is done so that you can see the glacier from almost all sides, as here an extensive network of specially equipped balconies and rail tracks.
