Took a ride on the Chilean Navy vessel ISAZA through the Chilean fjords from Puerto Williams to Punta Arenas.  What a gift for my family to see these mountains of ice, snow and granite.  Can never get enough of this very special part of the world.

patagonia, inc. - summer 2014 catalog

Great memories of our kids zooming fast on wheels in the southern hemisphere city of sails.  These two wild ones terrorized all the pedestrians along the waterfront by racing each other on all the ramps they could find (including the steep three story one along the Events Center building).

Both scooters made it to the bottom of the harbour countless times during Tormentina & Raivo's on-the-docks antics.  Thanks to the Viaduct Marina for being so cool with us and to Jeri Bakker & the crew of SY Zefiro, Dan Thielmann & Chris Sadler for putting on the dive gear to retrieve the sunken treasures.
