After a short bus trip we were at Punta Arenas, about as far south as you can go on land in Chile and over 8000 miles away from home. After here it is the sea and then the Antarctic. We arrived in rain and after walking around the whole town with our packs on trying to find a decent and reasonably priced hostel, we ended up at the hostel nearest the bus station. At least we got some exercise!

We havenĀ“t done too much here - booked our trip to the Penguin colony, got loads of washing done, and watched Fulham beat Villa. I think everyone in the hostel heard me and Chris cheering when Jimmy scored the winner.

We spent our last day in South America at the penguin colony and saw loads of young fluffy penguins. A nice way to end this part of the trip.

So now South America is at an end and we move onto a new country and new continent. And thankfully they speak English!!!

Love to you all
