Bariloche, Argentina

April 11th, 2015 tlholl16

Just a few weeks ago we were lucky to get a holiday weekend long enough to squeeze in a side-trip to Bariloche, Argentina. Bariloche is a part of the southern-most Patagonia province and is located along the Andes mountains near Chile. It is oftentimes compared to the Swiss Alps, and has an interesting history as an escape zone for Nazis. It is a local rumor that Hitler faked his suicide and fled to Bariloche to live among the mountains. It doesn’t seem fair that Nazis were able to live in such a beautiful area!

During our trip, we enjoyed the outdoors with biking, kayaking, and hiking. It was so nice to get away from the big city for a few days!
