Punta Arenas - Windy City
We did not have much luck with our short stay in Punta Arenas We booked on a Trip to the Magellan Straits, which was cancelled due to strong winds. We then tried a typical evening meal at one of the local ranches, which was also cancelled due to strong winds demolishing a power line. The main square has ropes around it to enable visitors to hang on in case strong winds blow them into the street!
We enjoyed our stay in the Hostal Al Fin del Mundo with it's wide screen TV and a huge variety of DVD's, plus all the sports channels from home, including some Champion's League matches to catch up on. Priorities you know!!
Worthy of a short hike up the back of the city to view the rooftops and Magellan Straits. We came across one tour group just heading off to fly into Antarctica and walk to the South Pole. Plenty of other adventurers on tour ships and sailing yachts.
Signposts everywhere, indicating distances to a large variety of global locations.
Another colourful Plaza.
People in these parts certainly know how to brighten up their houses.
