The long drive from Puerto Natalas to Ushuaia!

Monday 27 Dec

At 9 am the bus left Puerto Natalas for the neighbouring larger Puerto Arenas. It was only a 3 hour drive. By now I was glad to end up in a warm 4 star hotel and immediately went back to bed again. Mid afternoon a hot soak in a smallish bath helped. As it was still very cold and windy outside, I decided not to go with the …

I could have taken an expensive tourist type day …

D Day = departure day / transfer day.

The rest of the GAP "End of the Earth" group left for Buenos Aires just after mid day but I left at 9 am for a 9 hour 4 x 4 drive with a bb que lunch thrown in. Not cheap in my mind at 380 pesos, US$90, NZ $ 120 but at least it got me out into the countryside again. There was nothing else in Ushasia …
