Faro del Cabo de Hornos? I found a pic of it. Oh, and I believe its cold too. Its almost touching the Antarctic! Well, if Im lucky and I make enough money, ill probably go down there once! But thats what I say for every country... Ever since I loaded Google Earth, there isnt a place in the world that I wouldnt want to go to (well, maybe Iraq, for obvious reasons...).

It's name is beause when the first arrived to those lands there was a big fire and something like that, I don't know the whole story, LOL... did you know that it's called "El Fin del Mundo" ("The End Of The World")? There u would find a lighthouse called the same way, as a monument. The name is becuase it's the is the southern place in the world with people. Really cold. | | _strat_ wrote: | | Yes, I just checked it on Google Earth. I never imagined Argentina is so BIG (but then again, probably because we are so small...).
Now "Tierra del Fuego"... I dont speak Spanish, but I think that means "Land of fire", right? Sure look like an interesting place. Have you ever been there? | | adrianaec_88 wrote: | | yes, that's right we are far away from the ecuator, but where I live, it doesn't snow, I would have to take a plane (or travel a day and a half, or maybe two in bus, and that sucks lol) to the suthern of the country, like Mendoza or Tierra del Fuego. We have many climates down here, in the south u can find snow, and in the north really tropical climates, really hot! I mean it.
For me to travel to the suoth of my country is as expensive as travel to the foreing, prices that only tourist can pay during winter. | | _strat_ wrote: | | all the way back?
Oh, and yeah, it would be expensive... But I thought you guys get snow when its winter over there? I mean, youre pretty far away from the ecuator, arent you? | | adrianaec_88 wrote: | | Ok that would be great, I just have to get a plane ticket and fly all the way back to Slovenia, yes no problem LOL | | _strat_ wrote: | | Well, its cold and wet and needs to be cleared all the time. Maybe we should switch places? | | adrianaec_88 wrote: | | God I would really like to be there... I know u don't like snow MG, but me, I would really like to know what it's like, u know, to play in the snow and make angels in the floor LOL... also I would really like to have a white christmas.... it's summer in this side of the globe..
