From Tip to Top: 2017

Introduction

This blog will track the preparation and progress of a journey from the Antarctic circle near the bottom tip of Argentina to the top of North America via the amazing island of Cuba and many other interesting places along the way such as Uruguay, Chile, Brazil, Paraguay, Panama and the US. Some of the highlights for me will be spending time at Iguazu Falls, experiencing a Boca Juniors football match in Buenos Aires, kayaking with the whales in the Antarctic and attending a screenwriter's conference in Los Angeles!

Vancouver City

Five years ago, I crossed into the Antarctic Circle, and then visited various parts of Argentina, Chile, Panama and Cuba.

A year later, I came back to the Americas and travelled from Los Angeles to San Francisco.

Now, I've just arrived in Canada to complete the last leg of my trip from the 'tip to the top' of the Americas.

I'm staying with a friend at her house in West Vancouver, which has a great view of the bay during the day and at night, as you can see.

The bad news is that it has been raining quite heavily ever since I arrived, but the good news is that it's snowing up in the mountains, so I'll have to get up to Whistler to do some skiing before I leave!

And while in Canada, I plan to fly into the Arctic Circle, so that I can complete my trip from the 'tip to the top' of the Americas.
