For those Google Earthers out there

I had a bit of time between buses Monday so I went onto Google Earth and located a few spots I have visited recently.  To check them out copy and past all the numbers into the search in google earth (or www.maps.google.com in Satellite of Hybrid mode) and you should be able to fly there in seconds verses the hours/days it took me by land, sea and air (most are not high quality photos so you most likely will need to zoom out).
Monero Glacier    -50.4752426056  -73.062313277 ,
Torres del Paine   -50.9866904668 -73.0019928194 ,
Ushuia  -54.8142662849 -68.3918594315 ,
Iguazu Falls    -25.6910360935  -54.4421379091 ,
Bolivian Salt Flats  -20.181012  -67.467041 ,
Lake Titicaca floating Islands -15.81992 -69.970722 ,
and something that everyone should recognize 46.264273,-63.163651  .
I am off for my final long haul bus ride to Santiago (18 hours).  Hopefully should arrive Thursday morning so I can catch my flight back to North America that evening.

Jonathan, every day I talk to your Mom, she is counting off the time till you are back home again! I hope you had an enjoyable trip and saw most of what you wanted to see. I know you have a busy summer ahead....take time to rest up and recover from a hectic few months. Safe travels...God's blessing. Love, Aunt Ethel

I made it to Santiago so I guess this means that I will be able to make my flight which means I should be heading home in a few hours. I hope to see you all (well whoever is around the maritimes) when I get home. Let's have a campfire at the beach sometime.
