Well we made it to the self proclaimed Fin Del Mundo/End of the World at Ushuaia, the southernmost city in the world in Tierra del Fuego.
After camping we just spent one night in Puerto Natales and jumped straight on a 12 hour bus yesterday through to Ushuaia. The trip was OK with a choppy ferry crossing of the Magellan Strait to break the journey. We are now in Argentina but will have to cross through part of Chile again to get back to Buenos Aires.
Spent today resting as we felt like a break after the 10 days walking in the park. (Lots of photos,
will get back to doing a blog entry on it. Very spectacular!)
The city is pretty touristy where we are staying. It is the starting point for most boat trips to Antarctica (which the remains of our travel budget will no longer stretch to cover) and has a National Park close by and some Penguin Colonies across the Beagle channel to be seen.
We have two weeks left until we need to be in Buenos Aires to meet with Sarah's brother Beau so will start heading back north shortly.
