YOUR SCENE | ARGENTINA

Getting a bit dizzy in Argentina

Ralph Velasco of Newport Beach returned last month from an 11-day trip through South America that took in a lot of territory: Uruguay, Argentina and Chile. One of the highlights of the drive from Chile to Argentina was this slithering crossing of the Andes on Ruta 60. “There are 28 curves on this road,” Velasco said in an e-mail, “and it’s amazing to see 18-wheelers try to pass each other going up the hill.” His camera? A Nikon D70.
