Dichotomy

I'm so behind! Despite what the blog may indicate, we will be starting Day 15 in just a few hours. We left Chile a few days ago and have been in hot, hot, hot Argentina. I am sweating buckets while looking through pictures of glaciers that we visited just days before. Needless to say, our suitcases are filled with a great variety of clothing. I went from long underwear, fleece, and parkas to tube tops.

Each day is rather tiring, but we're having a great time. We even managed to get in a few spa treatments in Buenos Aires. The long days do make it tough to keep up with my original plan of blogging in near real time. Alas! I think both you and I will benefit, though, from better-rested writing, although there is something to be said about immediacy. It's like gathering evidence for a trial. Evidence gets stale. Witnesses' memories get fuzzy. Blogging is always best when the topic is fresh. To me, blogging is all about the here and now.

Luckily, I've done a very good job of uploading and labeling my photos each day. With the number of pictures I've taken, it doesn't take much for me to re-live last week!

Stay tuned!
