Hello from the end of the world! And a Happy Christams to all! Finally reached the end of the world after 2 solid days travelling on buses, and very much worth the wait, this place is one of the best places ive been to, its beautiful. Lots of tourists down here doing the trek across to Antartica, sharing their stories around the hostel. As expected, cold down here but such fresh air. The strangest thing by far is the fact the sun sets at about 11pm and rises at 4...

Arrived in Puerto Madryn safe and sound, on what has to be the most amazing bus ive seen! Massive leather reclining seats, flat screen TV, blankets and pillows and 3 meals! I love these Argy buses! Anyway enough about th bus . . . . Puerto Madryn is lovely and quiant, nice to be back in a small town again. The main features to do here are the wildlife out on Peninsula Valdes. Rumoured to not have much of a night life here, we were quite surprised when we were out...

After a farewell night out in yet another random bar in Quito, everyone has gone there seperate ways around the world. At the moment in Quito there is a music festival on, complete with Shakira! So the city is absolutely party central, which is always good. There are soooooooo many cool bars and restuarants here, you could eat and drink all day! Went to what we thought was a conce...

Time to hit the jungle again! This time it really did feel like the Rainforest should, so lush and green, and so very vast. Not the best journey into the forest, needless to say that tarmacing roads is not one of there top priorities! The truck could only take us the the edge of the river, which is were we boarded our canoe boats to reach the Anaconda Lodge where we were staying. Slightly apprehensive about the name, the boat ride was an amazing entrance, if not ...
