Last of Patagonia

Hi folks,
Here are some of the last pics from Patagonia. After these we have pics from Cordoba.
So here we have some last gems from the coast.

Here are Amalia and Anacelia taking a nap. Anyone who says you can't sleep in a Land Rover hasn't seen these girls in a coil sprung LR.

Here are Amalia and Camilo getting ready to head out to see the penguins.
Camilo learned that he can eat the vegetation that grows along the edge of the ocean. Its some kind of salt water tolerant plant... and he loved it.
The girls looking for a penguin nesting under the bushes.
There it is!
Here is one of the Land Rovers than drove us around Patagonia. Its a 110 Defender with the TDi engine. A total beast.
Tom and Gabe surveying the terrain.
Gabe carrying Anacelia on his shoulders. In fact, Amalia and Anacelia were great hiking, often doing as many as 3 miles on a hike, not bad at all.
Amalia and her sea lion femur.
Steamer ducks! There were lots of them around. These can't fly and are endemic to the province of Chubut.
Here is where the femur was found.
And here is a sea lion skull we found! We also found a whale skeleton but forgot to take pics.
Amalia and her friend Yosi.
