So onto the last bit of travel, the last crossing borders and the last part of our holiday. Sad times indeed but before all that Buenos Aires beckons.

Despite waking at 8 the early boat time means that we only have time for a breakfast and packing before walking over to the port.

At the port we get our entry and exit stamps and Tor gets hers again as somehow they missed her out and then we wait for our steed across the water.

The boat is something equivalent to a sea cat and unfortunately there are no opportunities to stand on deck. Instead we sit down for a smooth 1 hour crossing only interrupted by a quick game of "Find the missing earring backing" - we all lose this game, including the over helpful crew member, ah the perils of travelling with two girls!

It isn't long before the skyline of Buenos Aires looms large and we are ready to step back onto land.
