Tuesday 10th March 2015
Late breakfast after which we sort out some things before meeting up with Lyn for a stroll around town with Anne Alexander ( one of our fellow travellers off the ship who is also going on the Patagonia trip) to buy a few extra clothes.Coffee and cake very welcome at local coffee bar and such experiences becoming easier as your old blogger’s Spanish ( studied from 1963 to 1965 ) starts to show signs of improvement.
At 7 pm Lelia, our Chilean guide for Patagonia arrives to tell us about the trip and plans for the next week.
She is very personable, professional and brings the average age of the group down by at least 20 years.
We also meet up with Mick, a dentist from Murwillumbah ,Qld who will be the only newcomer to our group apart from Lyn. The rest of the intrepid team is made up of the following gluttons for punishment from The Polar Pioneer : –
Shan Huang, Heinz and Patricia Gropel,Ann Alexander , Marg O’Toole, Kathy McEwan, Tom Hadkiss , Sue John, the Irelands.
Finish the day with a huge Hamburger at hotel and then turn in for the night after packing our bags in preparation for next day’s departure.
Cheers
The Obese Ferret
