Last days and hours in Ushuaia

After arriving back from our round in Patagonia, we checked in stylish in a hostel, which is called Antarctica. It was recommended by Lonely planet and I found myself as well on the Internet during the preparation of the trip. It was a good choice; the hostel looks like and works like a student home. You have to cook your breakfast egg yourself and everybody is chatting everbody in the hall.

Yesterday we went out to the Tirra del Fuego National Park, which is at the end of the National road N0.:3 and famous about its bever dams. The weather was again quite windy and rainy as it should be in Fireland. I continued my G. Durell series and went on the dam to find its owners....

On our last day here in Fireland, we went out on Estancia Harberton at the coast of the Beagle Channel. This was one the first estancias down here and today is akind of tourist attraction, at the same time still runned by the grandduaghter of Mr. Harberton. There is also a scientific research center for sea mammals, we visited.
Along the road we saw a lot of trees, growing sideways because of the constant wind.
I was almost blown away:)))
