from buenos aires i headed down the east coast of argentina to puerto madryn, a 18 hour bus journey south. the area is so peaceful and sparsely populated, making it a great area for viewing wildlife.
|
|
|
for my time in southern argentina (patagonia) i am traveling with lauren from tasmania, australia. here she is on the black sand beach.
|
|
|
on this day we were at punta loma to see the sea lions which sleep, eat, and fight on the beach.
|
|
|
i would say there were about 200-300 of them laying on the shore.
|
|
|
the cliffs of punta loma were made of soft yellow stone that felt like sponge.
|
|
|
black mussels covered the ground near the water.
|
|
|
i no longer felt like i was in argentina. everywhere else i had been was so built up. puerto madryn is a small city in the middle of nowhere.
|
|
|
we walked around for a couple hours and enjoyed the peace and quiet. so nice to be out of buenos aires.
|
|
|
loved the black sand of the beach.
