In the evening we went to a Yeti bar, named for a mythical ape-like creature living in the Himalayan mountains. I was told the letter “Y” is pronounced “Sh.” Jason and I had a giggle over that one. In the West the creature is called the Abominable Snowman.

The bar offered photo opportunities in sub-zero temperatures. They provided parkas, mittens, and non-skid shoe coverings and served their drinks in ice glasses.

Perito got to sit on the Abominable Snowman’s shoulder.

Brrr! Perfect for a penguin.

Back in El Calafate, Jason wanted to take a 4×4 adventure up a neighboring hill, so off we went.

We saw Choique birds, which looked like small ostriches; guanaco, which is similar to the llama; and some stunning scenery.

At the end we enjoyed a hearty stew, and then a brownie with dulce de leche, a creamy caramel spread. Mmmm! And we both tried grapefruit soda, which also was good.
