Andre always wanted to drive to South America. I didn't get it. Why not sail, I thought, wind is cheaper than gas.
Geoff always talked about hiking. I didn't get it. Why not canoe, I thought, and have the water carry your gear.
Now I get it.

Even from the bus window we could tell that we were going to a special place. |
|
I carried all my stuff with me: tent, sleeping bag, dry clothes, and food... |
|
... and took selfies each time I stopped for breakfast on the trail.
|
|
Most paths went through forests...
|
|
... with some bridges.... |
|
and some ladders. |
|
... with glaciers peeking through the crevices... |
|
... and hills peeking through the trees. |
|
The path was marked by inuksuks... |
|
... and went past waterfalls. |
|
I took close ups of glaciers, |
|
the rocks at the bottom of the Torres, |
|
of the flora, |
|
and the fauna. |
|
And at the end of each day I flung my arms wide and was just happy to be here. |
