It's chilly in Chile!!!!

Well it certainly is in Punto Arenas - most southern city in Chile!!!


Don't think we had long enough here to see much of the place - or maybe that was a good idea.  Punto Arenas has a large duty free shopping precinct called Zona Franca - mostly closed on Sunday!!!!  A good thing???

Some of the girls found really cute penguin beanies at a market.  Missed them too - will have to get a picture!

Just had time for a really quick lunch before our trip to see the penguins - time for a 'completo'  (aka ... hot dog).  Best hot dog ever - and washed down with a copa de vino!!!!  Lex's 6 weeks was up to so he also indulged.  Sadly he wasn't able to buy one of these glasses.



Rugged up really well for the trip to see the penguins - another GOOD decision!  It was windy and cold - but they were so cute.   We saw a number of them on the beach - apparently as they return from 'fishing', and others waddling back to their nests, and some popping up from nests.









Off camping today - no posts for a few days I think....   and loads of adventure!!!!
