'My first thought was that I had just entered a butterfly farm when disembarking the plane at Iguazu airport on the Argentinean side. Thousands of beautifully coloured butterflies greeted me and immediately I knew I was in for something special. '...extract from the forthcoming On Location August 2007 from my recent trip to Argentina & Chile.

A truly memorable trip from start to finish, from hearing the vast quantities of water passing through Iguazu falls, to watching the most spectacular sunset I have ever experienced next to the stand of flamingos grazing in the Laguna Chaxa saltflats at the Salar de Atacama. I literally needed to pinch myself due to the sheer magnificence!

Looking forward to my next trip back to Argentina in November, where I will embark upon an amazing adventure to Antarctica and Peninsula Valdes. From watching the recent 'Saving Planet Earth' BBC programs following the Albatross in the Falklands, and previous nature programs on the penguins in Antarctica, I am incredibly privileged!
