We took our last flight south this morning- to Ushuaia on the island of Tierra del Fuego. This is the most southern city in South America, according to the Argentinian’s, though Chile disputes it. It lies on the north shore of the Beagle Channel, and just east of the Parque Nacional Tierra del Fuego, where we spent the afternoon. We mailed postcards and took a walk in the forest. We visited Lapatoia Bay, the southern end of the Pan American highway, which goes up to Alaska.
The weather here is extremely changeable (often every five minutes). We had cold (10C), rain showers, wind, and sunshine - and that was just during our lunch break. Our guide told us that was their typical summer weather. We are here for two nights.
