WHAT A TRIP!!!!! This was one of my bucket list trips!!!And it was so amazing. We did so much, saw so much and just had a wonderful time.
Even though everything was so different, unique and beautiful in it's own way and there are so many fun memories from each part of the trip, my favorite was seeing Perrito Moreno. It is just such an amazing sight. That's what I'd always really wanted to see in Argentina, and I got to do it!!!
We started in Buenos Aires. We walked around the different areas, we took the hop-on hop-off bus, enjoyed the hotel rooftop pool and we had a Christmas eve dinner in our hotel room since most restaurants were closed. Also, Santa and the Tooth Fairy found us on the same night (Noa lost her tooth!).
From Buenos Aires we flew to Iguazu where it was VERY hot and sticky. We went to Iguazú National Park where we walked the Lower Circuit and the Upper Circuit. We saw Devil's Throat from afar, but couldn't get close since it was closed due to high water levels washing out the walkways. The waterfalls and the walk through the rainforest were beautiful.
While we were in Iguazu we did a Canopy and Arbolism Jungle Tour where we walked on treetop bridges, ziplined and rappelled down a waterfall. Noa was nervous at first with the zipline, but after she tried it, she loved it. It was a really fun tour ziplining and rappelling.
From Iguazu we flew to El Calafate and got there pretty late (9:45pm-ish). Once we got to the house, we found a pizza delivery place for dinner. Noa said she was feeling "meh" and fell asleep on the couch without having dinner. In the morning she woke with a fever of 38,3. Since we were going to go walk Perrito Moreno National Park, we decided to go and Noa and I would sit on a bench while Satcha and Maya walked around. Noa fell asleep in the car on the way to Perrito Moreno. Once we got there Noa said she was feeling a little better, so we walked the Lower Circuit boardwalk. What an amazing sight... Perrito Moreno!!! Probably one of the most amazing sights I've seen. While we were there we heard and saw chunks fall off. Noa felt ok, so we kept walking and did the Upper Circuit, Forest Circuit and River Circuit boardwalk. My little lady was amazing!!! We were done walking all circuits 
around 2:00pm and Noa was low on energy, so we headed back to the house to rest and go out for a burger dinner later that night.
The next day Noa was feeling better and we did the Todos Glaciers Tour. It was a beautiful, relaxing glacier boat tour. We had a really nice day. And that night we went out for a lamb dinner! Yummy!!!
From El Calafate we flew to Ushuaia. We arrived on New Year's Eve, so we did a quick food shopping trip for our New Year's Eve dinner: Packaged risotto, ravioli and nuggets!!! It was a fun night! On New Year's Day we did a boat tour through the Beagle Chanel to Isla Los Lobos, Isla Pájaros and Lighthouse. The next day we did the VERY fun Penguin tour.
We went to an island that is inhabited by only penguins. We walked around the island for about 1 hour which was really fun walking with penguins (it was also VERY cold!!). We also went to Tierra del Fuego National Park and took the Train to the End of the World and walked along the different paths in the park.
From Ushuaia we flew back to Buenos Aires for one more day before flying back home. We just hung out and walked around Buenos Aires. On our last day, since we had a night flight, before going to the airport, we walked around the Ecological Reserve. It was a nice walk, but it was really hot and humid and we didn't have any water. But, we did it! And, after the walk Maya and Noa found souvenir bracelets they'd been looking for all trip at a little market near the Reserve which made it all worth it.
It was an another amazing family trip!!! And I got to check another place off my bucket list!!!
