The Beagle Channel

... the vegetation, the weather, etc... He told us we were very lucky on the weather since it was blue skies and no wind. He said that only happens about 10 days out of the year. Yay for us!

The one major thing we missed out on were the penguins, but unfortunately they are not in season at the moment. However, the cormorants look an awful lot like penguins, so we sort of saw some penguins. Kind of. Maybe.

The cruise was about 4 hours. After that we ...

Consertei a camera com silver tape...

... nacional tudo esta fechado. Agora a noite encontrei uma loja que revela filmes e mandei um deles pra ver no que da. De qualquer forma, resolvi nao esquentar, afinal o mais importante sao mesmo as lembrancas. Ainda que lente esteja boa, duvida ter boas fotos desta vez. As condicoes de luz sao dificeis, tempo fechdo, para sair algo que presta. Minha solucao provisoria foi um conserto rapido da lente com silver tape (foi caro mas serviu pra alguma coisa ...

I get around boy!

... much as a cloud in the sky, with little more than a stiff breeze I can't wait to discover further the enchanting parts of the Andes and Argentina making the most of the South American expedition as it draws to a close. Ushuia a place where even the flight in makes the trip/journey so far south worthwile. Having to enter what seems like a necessary flight patttern due to traffic if in a city, it was soon obvious that such was ...

Shipwrecks, Stormy Seas and Scary Seals

... evacuation until we had our lifeboat drill last week: five minutes sitting among forty people crammed into an enclosed lifeboat left me claustrophobic and rethinking my desire for an emergency! By lunchtime the winds had dropped sufficently to allow us to proceed and then make our final zodiac landing of the voyage. And it was quite a landing... the stony beach was like an obstacle course of ...

Dierentuin

... kwamen brengen, nu zijn ze uitgestorven. Ze hadden een hele andere fysieke bouw, veel grotere longen, snellere vetverbrandingen en heel veel slimmigheden om hier te kunnen overleven. Erg indrukwekkend. Ook zeer memorabel is het aanpassingsvermogen van de natuur hier. Een bepaalde mossoort groeit 1 mm per jaar, niet te hard om de wortels te kunnen blijven beschermen en wij liepen tussen bollen van een dikke meter in doorsnee door. Deze ...

Ushuaia - fin del mundo (end of the world)

... I found a supermarket here, and have purchased lots of bread, crackers, some fruit, and some instant soups - just in case. I read somewhere that on South Georgia island where we are going, the population is 10 to 12 people and a few million penguins, so obviously there is not going to be any internet access for me to post any more of these blogs, but I will try and keep up writing these on my computer and upload it when I get a chance.

Wow ! What a Ride

... revs as we pull away. We travel 213 kilometers to Ushuaia, the grasslands change to pine forests barely hanging onto life as the bright green moss chokes the trees on every limb. The moss frozen in time as the constant prevailing wind forces them to hang sideways off the branches. The pine forest gives way to deep black mountains and the flat road begins to curve its way around the mountainside as we approach the city. A big grin on my face as we leave the last ...

CHAPTER 2: YOU SAY PAMPAS, I SAY NAPPIES

... warming the road below. I find it strange that the allegedly inhospitable end of the world is lusher and more welcoming than the preceding plains of Patagonia and the Pampas. Rolling into Ushuaia, we stop for photos at the town entrance that declare we have made it to the end of the world. After that we follow the highway to find a town with gold rush frontier charm and a whopping port with 40ft containers stacked high. It stands to reason that Buenos Aires is not the only ...

Down, Down, Down, to the Burning Land of Fire.

... mainly a tourist magnet. Visitors to the city are here for the trekking, skiing, and Antarctic cruising. Personally, we would love to visit the dirty dirty south (Antarctica), but with last minute discounts sitting around $4000 per person for 9 days we decided to travel in Asia for 7 months instead... Our hostel is very nice with a ski lodge feeling, heated floors, and a really cool social space. Arik especially likes the hostel because some of the ...
