Puerto Madryn
November 7th, 2007
Today we left El Calafate around noon, arriving at Rio Gallegos at 4:30. We departed Rio Gallegos 4 hours later, heading for Puerto Madryn, a city on the coast with good proximity to the marine wildlife in the area.
On the bus, we had leather seats that reclined fairly far - and watched movies, which allowed the time to pass fairly easily. The gasoline smell that pervaded the whole ride left us feeling a bit off. On the bus we had met Morena, and Italian living in the UK, and Simon, the Brit she was engaged to, and lived with in London. We all joined together and rented an apartment, planning to split a car rental and head to the various wildlife areas over the next few days.
We explored the town a small amount, walking along the beach to an eco museum, and then returned back to our apartment for some take home pizza.
Penguins - here we come!!!!
