We have never been so dusty. Five days later, when we shower, it still smells like wet ceramic, dank and earthy. How this smell travelled in our hair from across the continent goes a bit like this: We left Buenos Aires unable to walk without a shuffle, a twist and a kick from so much tangoing. It gets in your legs, your hips, even when there´s no music playing. Somehow we made it to the train, spinning, pausing, looking flashy, then to the bus, down the East coast of Argentina, across the cam...

Saturday 8th September - Thursday 13th September Caught an 14 hour overnight bus from Bariloche to Puerto Madryn, on the east coast of Argentina. Puerto Madryn is a coastal city close to the Peninsula Valdes, and the base for whale watching! We arrived at our hostel early on Sunday morning and as our room was not yet ready, we headed to the beach to find some breakfast. Amazed to find whales just 100m from the shore! Had breakfast in a cafe on the beach and watched the whales playing, then we...

Another horizon chasing endless Patagonian scrub while on a bus journey which took us from Rio Gallegos in Santa Cruz province up to Trelew and the heart of the "Welsh" settler collony of Argentina. One of our reasons for stopping off here was to experience the parts of Argentina where Welsh is still spoken and full high teas are found in many quaint "Cassa de Te" (tea houses). More specifically however this area of Argentina is renouned for it´s incredibly rich marine wild life and whale wat...

Puerto Madryn ===ABOUT THE SMALL TOWN=== A mecca for those wanting to visit the natural sites and fauna of the coast in the northern part of Patagonia. Here the early maritime mythologies come alive. The first conquistadors saw unattractive mermaids in the sea, and also believed that their ships were landing on scary sea creatures. In reality, they were spying some very large whales and a land that had not yet been added to their maps. When the tide is very low, the wide beach becomes dotted ...

... lots of wildlife excursions. The sun is so strong I got burnt with even having strong sunblock on, but the beach is beatiful and the people quite friendly. I shared a room with a group of girls from Denmark who were passing through. I only spent one night at this place because it sounded like my bed was in the middle of a highway.

... one partner for life unless they can not have children? It takes the penguin 4-5 years to become ready for reproduction. On the way back we got real lost trying to get to a small town west of Trelew called Gaimen. The roundabouts all have signs before you arrive. However it might point to a real small town or one that is 1000km away. This makes for a system that allowed us to get super lost around the town of ...

... run by. I'm fairly confident it would have ran into our room and scratched my eyes out. So tell Snuggies, his cousin says hi. All in all, this was a pretty good town for some R & R, but we're ready to get going again. Next we are heading north to Viedma (ultimately to Buenos Aires). We are really looking forward to the 18th when Brian's mom, Susan, is coming to visit us in Buenos Aires for a week!!! It will be so nice to have another woman to talk to (and who speaks English)!!!

We got to see the last southern right whale and calf leaving from the Golfo Nuevo after an hour ride out on a boat (Phill´s new drugs work just fine) and were very lucky indeed - as you will see when we eventually manage to upload some photos, you couldn´t see much, but what you could see was good. We then went to see some elephant seal pups and teenagers on a beach - they´re busy growing new skin and ...

... either just before or just after me so it was great to sit down and catchup on travel news, exchange ideas and recommendations and also catch up on general stuff. . It was a brief catch up though as Gareth and Alanna had to head off to the bus station to catch their bus down to Ushuia (a very very very long bus ride) but it was worth the quick cup of coffee. Although I am loving meeting all these new people, its also great to just ...

... need to save the cash, so we went for a beer instead (yes I'm stupid) Met an Irish guy who was on a cruise and he bought a few beers before being dragged off by his wife. Had a few beers one night in a bar that had a cabaret show on. The show was a 1950s Chicago type thing, but ended up turning into a strip show!!!! Very interesting!!!! Got back about 4am. Not great when you are doing a ...
