Ushuaia..The end of the world.

Venturing to the far south and the city of Ushuaia (Argentina). The most southerly inhabited city in the world.  The city itself is not too attractive and has been built up randomly very quickly, however the surrounding environment and the national park of Tierra del Fuego and the Beagle Channel make up for what the city lacks.  A place so isolated where you really are at one with nature.  Where there is more wildlife than people.  Taking a boat out to sea the sealions, many sea birds and most importantly to me were the penguins. One animal that I can now check off on my list of seeing in its natural environment.  Air, water and land so pure it appeared like a airbrushed photoshoped image.  Reflections that confused the human eye and landscapes that you have only dreamt off.  A stunning part of the world that I would return too tomorrow.  Just the start of my Patagonia trip working my way from Ushuaia to Santiago.
