... it turned out that everyone on the van except Jemma understood all the Spanish, which left her feeling a bit special whenever the guide read off parts in English especially. In the reserve we saw a Patagonian Skunk, some Patagonian Llamas (known as a Guanaco), plenty of sheep, wild horses and a funny looking bird resembling a small Ostrich. Our next stop was the Elephant Seals. As it was early in the season, we only saw ten or so and we didn't see any males which are much larger ...

... with two small children... You just feel terrible for the sort of life they live.<br><br>Anyway, back to the fun stuff! Puerto Madryn was the little town we arrived in. Its in northern Patagonia and our first taste of the cold that is coming our way! The main atttraction here is whales - Southern Right Whales who arrive between July and December to mate and calf every year. We had heard that they had arrived while we ...

... very strange. It was not as if every one there was speaking Welsh but some local people know welsh but predominantly speak Spanish. It was great to sit down and have a decent brew with lots of lovely cakes including Welsh Cakes. It was like being back at home even if the Welsh cakes were not as good as Mothers. The next day we visited a National coastal reserve Peninsular Valdes. We went on a guided tour to see Sea lions, Penguins, Elephant ...

... flopping forward a bit to get closer to the sea and THAT¨s IT! Doesn´t it sound amazing? I just sat and stared at them for almost 45 minutes:P Last but not least we went to Punt Piramides, the only town on the Peninsula, which is tiny and sweet and has a little bay where you can swim:) Finally we went home, completely exhausted, which is where I am now. Am about to have a shower and make some dinner and off to bed for another early start tomorrow! Hasta luego! Besos, Aish

... some of the poeple in the town regulary write for the BBC website Anyway, better go. We are off to catch another all night bus. We have struggled to kill a whole day without spending much money. Managed to make 2 coffees last almost 3 hours!! The problem with travelling in such larger countries is that a great proportion of the time is spent on buses or waiting around. I think the best inter country travel has got to be India. The trains were ...

... as he was playing. I felt so sorry for him. Another lady spotted me and we both took him and all his parent's belongings and his toys and moved them a little ways up the beach. As I was doing this I saw them coming in from the water. Way to keep an eye on your child! When we got back we cooked up a huge meal and saw the biggest moon of 2009 (according to Yahoo.com). It was beautiful. We've had the hardest time at the grocery store here. To get beer you have to pay a bottle ...

... Estancia San Lorenzo, on hi ha una reserva natural de pingüins magallanics. Fan molta gràcia! són petitets, d'uns 45 cms com a molt - més petits que els que hi ha a l'Antàrtica que poden arribar als 90cms. Cada família té el seu cau. No és com Punta Tombo, a 80 km al sud de Puerto Madryn que hi ha una reserva de 1 milió de pingüins, però ens en fem una idea. Fan un so molt característic, especial per tal de reconeixer´s entre les parelles i families. Després de tenir ...

... to be laundered. Another early morning pick up for our trip to the Pennisula Valdes. We had some breakfast at the hotel. Boo ate frosted flakes, toast, and a few slices of ham. After the tour company picked us up, we took a long drive to the Peninsula Valdes. Our first stop was in Puerto Pyramides. Boo and I went on a Zodiac trip in hope of spotting a whale. (S decided not to join us.) Our whale ...
