We left at 9.30am after a little bit of a lie in (phew!) for our flight to Ushuaia. It was an hour long flight and was a little bit bumpy. It was grey and rainy on our arrival.

It was after midnight when we finally stopped to pitch camp on the beach. I know this because the clock in the rent-a-car hadn't changed time zones like we had yet, so when I announced it was 11, three people with phones told me otherwise. We had been ... Read more >

Well, it was a good thing I came into Melbourne during the comedy festival. I got to see quite a few free shows and have a few good laughs during my short stay here. I had a tour guide on my waterfalls tour that said that people tend to either prefer ... Read more >
