We are letting you know that we have lots of openings for the FWSA Argentina/Chile See & Ski trip in August 2009. The basic trip is to Bariloche & Buenos Aires (Aug. 16-25, 2009).
After Buenos Aires we have a post trip to world renowned Iguacu Falls (Aug. 25-28, 2009).
More important is a pre-trip to Valle Nevado & Santiago Chile (Aug. 10-17, 2009). You would not believe how beautiful and charming you will find Chile.
We realize that going on all parts of this trip is costly in today's economic climate; however, this is an opportunity of a life time to see and ski South America. We visited all the sites except Iguacu Falls this last winter and found them exceeding our expectations. We hope you will consider joining us on this summers adventure.
