Ushuaia Day 2


Marty and I got an early start and headed out to visit the Tierra Del Fuego National Park which was about 15 miles away. Marty warned me that I probably would not find it to be spectacular like many of our western parks but interesting nonetheless.As far as the weather goes it was typical of this area with cool temps and windy conditions.We first stopped at a large fresh water lake named Lago Roca that is more in Chile than Argentina. After that we made our way to the literal end of the world where the road ends for good. There is a sign there that marks the spot accordingly. On our way back we stopped at the Ushuaia Golf Club where people were actually playing in 40 degree weather and windy. We also stopped by the memorial that Argentina erected to the fallen soldiers who were killed in the 1982 Falklands conflict.
 


 

 
 
And where would we be without today's bird shot. I think this was South America's version of the Canadian goose.
