In Patagonia

The ferry dropped us (eventually) in Puerto Natales, a small village that floods with tourists in the summertime. The draw here is Parque National Torres Del Paine, a beautiful park with mountains, glacial lakes and interesting wildlife. Because of this, it's quite expensive to go (sort of like the grand canyon) and because it is so touristy, Matthias opted out. So, I took a day trip from Puerto Natales and got to see many of the highlights. Pictures are uploaded (see left - photos 4) but there are tons from the ferry ride and the park, totally unedited, so it may be a bit of a hassle to look through.

We are now in Punta Arenas waiting for our bus to Ushuaia, Argentina - the southernmost city on earth. We coudn't get a bus until Saturday the 11th, so we are hanging here until then. It's a bit chilly, but could be much worse!
