Whales!! & Puerto Madryn

Hi all, well after El Calafate we took a very delux bus to a town on the atlantic coast called Puerto Madryn. Again we watched more football, played epic matches of ping pong and ate well. The food here is good but it is hard being a vegetarian. I do enjoy the wine though!!!

















Well our main activity in Puerto Madryn was to see whales. We took a tour for the whole day where were we drove to a peninsula and took a boat ride where we were very close to the whales. We saw a least 3, two of which were trying to mate so there was a lot of movement in the water. It was great. I have seen whales before but never that close. We also visited collonies of Elephant seals and sea lions but were a bit dissapointed by there laziness.

















Then back to town to take another bus. At the moment it feels like I have spent so much time on buses as Argentina is such a large country there are long distances between places.
