| Torres del Paine |
After reuniting a week and a half ago, I found out Dad had made grand plans for us. Namely the "W" Trek in Torres del Paine National Park. "W" has some negative connotations for us given the last eight years in the United States, but this W gave nothing but good feelings.
We decided to take advantage of the Refugio system the park is famous for. Each day had us hiking 5 to 10 hours to the next hut where showers, food, wine, and bunks were waiting for us! What a way to travel, light packs had us moving swiftly day to day. We couldn´t have been more lucky with the weather as the previous weeks here saw extensive rain. Each turn on the trail provided a new view and encouraged us to linger and soak in the views. After my climbing trip and constant movement it was nicer to enjoy this park at a slower pace.
Dad and I are having a great time and have been reenergized after a bit of time apart. Something any relationship can use from time to time! (Miss you Meg). Next we are on to Punta Arenas to visit Penguins, then on to Chiloe, an unexpected change of plans, but not to be missed apparently.
Love you all.
