Ushuaia, Tierra del Fuego, Argentina

The world's southern most city...


The great outdoors, trekking in Tierra del Fuego National Park





4x4 excursion across the peninsula to Lago Fagnano


passing a few huskies on the way....


 

Admiring the view (bloody freezing!)...


 Larking about off road...






Next stop, barbecue on the beach...






We made a friend...






Checking out the wildlife on the boat trip across
 the Beagle Channel...



Penguins...


Cormorants


Hundreds of sea lions...






A lone Elephant Seal


A swift walk on Bridges Island






A trek up to the Martial Glacier with an amazing view of the Beagle Channel...




A hard slog uphill...we never seem to pick the easy route!





Sledging all the way down....on a plastic bag...


After three cancelled flights due to cold weather, we bit the bullet and took the 20 hour bus ride through Chile and back to Argentina. Never been so glad to be on a ferry!
