Regular Exercise

Thank you to all who offered suggestions to help Trevor and myself cope with our relational difficulties. It´s actually one of the great priveleges of this gjourney that we get to spend so much time growing relationally. Of course, the greatest gifts and experiences often come at the greatest cost. It´s good, so good.
I think my favorite suggestion was that we schedule some regular exercise and be sure to include it as part of our day. Exercise is important.
We will be headed north from this awesome glacier and incredibly touristy town to El Chalten which is near the base of Mt. Fitzroy. From there, we will enter Chile again and begin the most remote section of our trip on the southern Careterra Austral.
Internet in this part of the world is slow and expensive, so updates will probably be text-only for a little while, but be sure there are astonishing things to see in this part of the world.
We had a great day at the Perito Moreno glacier yesterday. We rented a car and went there with an Austrian couple that we met on the road. We spent a lot of time watching the glacier break, bits of ice fall into the water, and enjoying deep philosophical musings and stories. Before coming to South America, they bicycled through Tibet, and had many interesting stories to tell.
Love!
Will and Trev
