The chilling grip of Antarctica on Tierra del Fuego finally lessened enough so that we could pack up for Patagonia. Of course we used our Patagucci bags and winter gear. We didn’t exactly go camping but the extra warmth was definitely needed. The program for this day trip to Tierra del Fuego was to take a boat ride on the Beagle Channel. Maybe I watched too much Monty Python in high school, because I get really excited when there is a chance for an Albatross sighting. (Click here to watch it on YouTube). No good photos of the one we spotted, so you will have to trust me that it was cool. We wondered whether one of the young Albatrosses we saw in New Zealand nine years ago might have been the bird that we saw. Jason’s video sums up the trip better than words can.
