... he tells us to go talk to the ticket sales lady because she can help us further. Guess what? She can´t! Oh, she can give us attitude and tell us we are screwed, but she sure couldn´t help us! Bottom line is they canceled the flight a month ago and said they tried to call us, but the call wouldn´t go through. So I never found about it. So she told us it was our fault because the number I gave didn´t work and so they are off the hook! We were arguing with her but she hardly understood ...

Cross the famed Straits of Magellen onto Tierra del Fuego, the Land of Fire. Eight hours and four border crossings later - zigzaging in and out of Chile - we reach Ushuaia, the southernmost city in the world. It's billed as the end of the world and with winter setting in and a chill in the air it's easy to believe the hype. I'm asked on the waterfront by an elderly Argentinean would I mind taking a photo of ...

The last couple of weeks has been an abundance of amazing scenery. Just when you think it couldn´t get any better you turn the corner and are blown away again by how beautiful it is. That is Patagonia for you! My last day in Pucon I spent horse riding, there was a magnificent view of Villarrica volcano. Clear blue skies and amazing landscape it was most enjoyable. I then headed down to Chiloe Island to meet Brooke, this was a marathon of buses and it wasn´t until I ...

... and deserted campsites so far...but there`s always the option of pulling into a layby in the future! eeek! So far we`ve stopped at a beautiful beach and camped right next to it...although it had slight gale force winds! We camped one night at the ferry port at the Magellan strait ready to cross the border from the continent in the morning, only to be woken up at 5am by raucous laughter and screams...the tents where flying away in a massive storm!! Our one was the last one ...

Early morning call as we approached the dock in Ushuaia. Lovely blue lighting, with the city a warm glow against the mountains. We docked, then had a group photo, then descended for a quick breakfast. ("Brekky" as the Aussies say.)<br><br>I showered, then we made a final check of our cabins - then it was time to say goodbye to Polar Pioneer. We said our fond farewells on the quay, then left our baggage and headed into town. The line at customs was very long, but, since we had no ...

... it was certainly a different matter. There is one thing about this sort of sailing though it sorts out the passengers as we probably had a 50% disappearance rate the next morning due to them feeling sea sick. Well on a ship this size there is not really much to do when you are out of sight of land, so out came the books etc and you find a good spot to settle in for the duration, every now and then you head out onto deck to get ...

We are at our home last night in Phoenix we stayed at a motel 6 and rested before making the trek home. We went out to Tarbells restraunt for supper it is owned by Mark Tarbell who won the iron chef competion a few years ago on TV. I had pizza and the best mac and cheese ever , a recipie of his moms using real vermont cheddar, Susie had her ...

... et valent très largement la peine de venir jusqu'ici pour quiconque se trouve en Patagonie. Bien que une partie du Parc est assez touristique (au bout de la Route Numéro 3, au kilomètre 3000 et quelques, où se trouvent de petits sentiers de promenade familiale), il y a d'autre possibilité de randonnée plus tranquilles qui permettent de s'éloigner des groupes de touristes en car.

... the land of Tierra del Fuego (land of fire named by Magellan), the most southern inhabited land in the world, and what did I see?? It is just like Canada !!! Well, that was worth it.... I sarcastically mentioned to Juliette. I was slightly disappointed. It is not like I have never seen the lakes and pine trees in Gatineau Park near Ottawa. And the mountains ??? Oooooooo, what an eye opening experience, not. We arrived in Ushuaia around 7pm after an 14 hour bus ride ...

... en "local" og en times kaving gjennom busker og kratt), og vi fant ogsaa roen i denne byen. Ushuaia er verdens soerligste by (paastaar de), men de som sjekker atlas finner raskt ut at Port Williams i Chili uten tvil ligger lenger soer. Mange av de som kommer til denne byen har kun noen faa timer her, da er det viktigst aa finne veien til turistkontoret for aa ...
