Total solar eclipse in Argentina December 14, 2020

[camel]

Who else is going somewhere along the path of the total eclipse later this year? It'll be passing West to East, crossing Neuquén over to San Antonio Oeste / Viedma. I've been looking forward to this for years... but I'm in the US since March and it's not certain I'll be able to come back by December.

I already live in the path! Looking forward to my first total solar eclipse. Good thing I saved those glasses from the US eclipse 2018.

I’m very interested in seeing this, it would be my first total eclipse. I saw package tours are available from between $2000 aimed at locals and 5000 for the international market, per person all departing from Buenos Aires. I’ll just leave those data points out there, I’m thinking that if all goes to plan and I get a car in October or November I’ll drive the 11+ hours to the path of totality in December. I saw almost no availability for flights to Madryn or Trelew, and I can very well imagine hotels and guesthouses will be both very expensive and also booked out. Anyone have a better idea?

Transporters union is planning a cut on rt 22 before the eclipse just to ruin something enjoyable for everyone else. Haters

Where I am it should get quite dark anyway so I'll be out in the garden. I'm more interested in seeing what the birds and our pets reaction will be. The dogs feeding time is usually around dusk....will they demand their food?
