May 15, 2009

The next location I am visiting is Lahuen Ñadi Natural Monument swamp.
It's in Chile, and the capital is Santiago. Argentina, Peru and Bolivia border Chile. For bodies of water there is South Pacific Ocean and South Atlantic Ocean. The GPS coordinates are 41 16'55.22" S 73 00'34.67" and the climate is damp and humid. It looks like the woods, but with gross water surrounding the trees. Truly, there really isn't any history of this swamp. It could be considered important because it has vegetation which not all swamps have. This swamps is about 7,063 miles from the last. To get to the swamp I flew from Sydney, Australia to Chile. I bought the flight and hotel in a package because it cost less, and together they were $1,486. The rental car was $54 a day, and I had it for 2 days so I spent $108. While traveling I didn't have any problems, except at the airport things ran very slowly. I think the biggest difference between this swamp and the last, is the temperature. It's warmer in Florida, than in Santiago.
