One of the highlights of the trip, Linda says, “was being in Buenos Aires the day Argentina won the World Cup and seeing the locals going wild with joy.” Related Articles Travel | Wish You Were Here: A Concord reader reports back from Patagonia

TRAVEL TIPS: “Pack clothes for both warm and cold weather. Cape Horn can be cold and windy. In Santiago, be sure to take the cable car ride to see Madonna de Santiago and also the 45-second elevator ride to the 1,000-foot top of the tallest building in all of South America, the Gran Torre Santiago.”
