Fin Del Mundo!

Ushuaia, Argentina - Otherwise known as the Southernmost City in the World (which really isn´t true since Chile has a naval port town slightly further south). And for you Gringos and Brits who don´t quite understand kilometers: 3040 kms = 51 hours in a Bus.

Isla de los Penguinos - Penguin Island

Probably as close as I´ll ever get to Antartica. And it keeps getting further away because of global warming. But really, who can live without all ten cylinders these days.

Lobos de dos pelos - Fur Seals (I thought lobo meant wolf)

Lobos Marinos - Sea Lions (again pretty sure lobo means wolf, but I guess they don´t really look like lions either)
Southernmost lighthouse in the world.

Un Pinguino - Dinner!

National Park at the End of the World. Here is where you can get your passport stamped with: Fin Del Mundo. Barney said its possibly the lamest thing anyone can do....so I got two of them (just kidding, one was enough). But then my passport was stolen, so I wasted three argentinian pesos. I´m sure there is probably a lesson in Karma somewhere in this turn of events. So now Im in La Paz, Bolivia working on my long overdue blog while I wait for the US embassy to open and give me a temporary passport.
