This video edition of the Tom Newsletter reports on my October 2008 expedition to Chile and Argentina, with stops in Santiago, Chile and Mendoza and Buenos Aires, Argentina.  I wanted to enjoy some good Malbec and cheap steak, and I believe I succeeded.  You can follow my adventures in the following seven video travelogues and accompanying slide shows.

The videos are also available on my YouTube Playlist, and can be viewed in sequence below.
