When we made the decision to travel to Ushuaia, part of the thinking was just to get to the end of the continent as part of our trip. Ushuaia however has proved to be far more than that, and our plan now is to stay here a full week before heading north again through Chile. Ushuaia´s motto is ¨the end of the world, the beginning of everything¨. Two days ago we took a boat trip out into the Beagle Channel on a very calm day. We stopped to explore H island the southern most point of Argentina. We had some great wildlife sightings there and at a couple of small islands on the return trip, including rookeries of both rock and king cormorants. The birdlife is fantastic and unusual.
