Penguins!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! One day in Puerto Natales we
hired some geezer and his car to take us up the straights of Magellan to a
penguin colony. It was really windy but sunny when we got there. The colony
was just inland from the sea so the pengiuns did alot of waddling about
in single file in a very pengiunish manner. All rather amusing to watch.
We got really close to them and they weren't really very scared. Suzie was
very excited indeed, obviously.
Yes, here's Suzie being very excited about seeing penguins, hence the silly face (again).
Here's the beach where the penguins were waddling into and out of the briney. They are much better swimmers than walkers!
After our exciting penguin excursion we flew back up to Santiago on our way
north to the beaches, deserts and more volcanoes in the norther part of
chile next to Peru. We stayed the night with Sylvin, Cendrine and little
Paul. Just to show we did go out in
Santiago, heres a couple of snaps from our excursion to the bars with Sylvin
on election night. The whole city went mad and was driving round beeping
horns and waving flags and stuff. There was confetti everywhere. Quite a
cool party atmosphere though! Seems they like a party round there...
