Today I headed to the biggest tourist draw in Patagonia: Perito Moreno Glacier. I think it’s the world’s biggest glacier, or the fastest growing, or something like that. (I didn’t pay for a guide!) It’s about 55 metres tall (160 feet), 5 kilometres wide (~3 miles), and really deep. My tour started with a boat trip that went up to the glacier’s face. The boat can’t get *too* close because the glacier is constantly calving massive icebergs that crash into the water. It was a nice ride, but the boat is annoyingly packed full of tourists, and everyone is trying to take photos simultaneously.
