This is the day that amiga Alberta flies back home. We have said our goodbyes the night before, and Bert is gone before Kathy and I arise at 8 am to enjoy yet another day of sunlight and cool breezes. Kathy and I will fly back to Buenos Aires for an extended 3-day stay to relax and tour BA further on our own. Lucky us! For now we stroll the grounds of the Estancia and come across a hidden vegetable garden and an old horse stall. We have breakfast and lunch in the restaurant at the ranch, where the food is very good. While the evening before at dinner we had listened to CD's of Frank Sinatra, Louis Armstrong, and American jazz of the 40's, now today we hear Nora Jones and Eric Clapton as we enjoy our meals. At 1:15 pm our taxi arrives to drive us to the airport in El Calafate and we make limited conversation with our Spanish speaking Bolivian driver. He describes seeing an eagle eating a hare, and some 9,000 year old hand paintings on the rocks nearby. In turn we teach him the "ingles" for "alto y baja" (high and low) and he seems pleased. Our flight goes well and we cab to our hotel in the Recoleta district to get ready for more city trekking starting tomorrow.
Kevin got right on our request and had us booked within the week

The info on the website was laid out very well. I did some comparisons with other tours and found Adventure Life met a lot of what I wanted in an Antarctica trip at the cheapest price. Requested a quote on Claudia contacted me right away. She answered a lot of questions the I had via email even though she offered to discuss via phone call. I’m more of an email person so appreciated how she accommodated that and answered all my questions. And when I was ready to book, she quickly got the ball rolling with getting our spots reserved on the trip my friend and I wanted. Thanks again, Claudia!

(1) great information on the website and throughout all the "materials." (2) Jane Packer is great: knowledgeable, responsive, takes a personal interest and tone, seems to care about the customer as a person not a sale.

For our first trip to Costa Rica, Adventure Life designed a tour that meets the interests, ecological and adventure, of our party; but also takes into account our physical limitations sine we are all septuagenarian. We are looking forward to the trip.
