Wow. Cant believe we´re into our final week already! Is going so quickly! Was first person up from our 6-person dorm this morning, so went and got breakfast at 8am. We fly to Trelew today for the last bit of our trip – am really looking forward to seeing all the wildlife, especially the penguins! Already have the Happy Feet CD all ready to play in the car for the drive there! Also is one of the best places in the world to watch the whales too, so that should also be amazing!
So today just pottered about (bit of a holiday admin day!) – got laundry done in town, did a bit of souvenir shopping and updated my blog whilst waiting for Sam to come join me in town. i left him back at the hostel uploading the latest set of pictures from our trip – they look fantastic (click here: http://www.samchadwickphoto.com/expedition-patagonia.html).
After another steak and fries lunch, headed back to the hostel for a while before our taxi back to the airport. The flight to Trelew was a couple of hours delayed but it was very smooth once we finally got on board. We landed around half 11 and made it into Trelew to check in at Hotel Galicia just after midnight. Ran round and had a quick nightcap at the Touring Club hotel bar (according to all the guide books, was a must see) before calling it a night and crashing into bed, ready for Penguintasia tomorrow!!! whoo-hoo!!!
