... couples. We also spotted one area with lots of water that had lots of these geese, lots of Chilean flamingos, some ducks and birds that looked like swans, as well as birds like swans with black necks. On arrival at the town we went to the tourist office and were told that the nearest campsite was 30 kms back the way we had come. As a result we tried another tourist office and now the ...

Told him I would need pictures before I commit, but what a nice gesture, I offered a couple of cigarettes in return for good measure. <br><br>Kat was pretty ****** that I had a couple more cocktails, as we had to run couple miles to the bus station at 2:30 AM in freezing temps to get there in time...but I thought it was worth it.

January 23rd. As we left Comodor this morning the winds began to howl off of the Atlantic Ocean, the temperature dropping noticeably. We had a cold, hard ride with occasional rain fall as the legendary winds of Patagonia blow us around.

Unfortunately, the only buses for this town are at 8 or 9 am therefore i need to stay here until tomorrow morning, and to say the truth there is nothing here.

... yet, and I was damned if I was going to leave the platform until it arrived. Thankfully, there were a few other people waiting too (although none spoke english) so I knew that I wasnt alone in my predicament.

However, we were soon underway - two hours late but I had the front ...
