Photos - South America

   

The countries in South America all differ greatly from one another. Each offers things in common yet distinctive aspects, the Galapagos in Ecuador, Machu Piccu in Peru (left, click to enlarge), beaches in Brazil, mountains in Chile, the Altiplano in Bolivia, and the plains of Argentina.

Argentina ranks in my top five favorite places for it's sheer beauty and diversity within one country. I ended up spending ten days relaxing and taking a travel break in Buenos Aires, itself an very modern and European influenced city.
