Flying today

9 Dec 2007

Well MarCLI picked us up at the hotel and got us to the airport on time
The flight back to Buenoes was nice and quick
The flight down to Ushuaia was a long haul = over 5 hours.

We had to stop in Rio Gallenos for 1 hour and pick some people up.
It is known for three things
1) Coal
2) Gas-Oil
3) The major military base for the attack on the Falklands

Myeslf and Terry decided not to get off here.

We landed in Ushuaia around 9pm

Two things about this place
1) Astounding beauty with the snow capped mountains behind
2) A lot colder than Buenos and the Falls' 5 degrees

The hostel was brillant only 10 rooms but very friendly and warm ( maybe too warm)

We had dinner in town at a very good fish place' = Patagonia Salmon hmmm good
and a beer or two.

Well more tmrw
