After seven days at sea, it felt wonderful to put our feet on land. Port Madryn doesn't have any historical significance or incredible landscapes. It was a bit of a shock to find that it is quite barren and arid.
We got on a coach traveled 1.5 hours to a small town settled by the Welsh. We had tea and entertainment by the local high school choir singing in Welsh and Spanish.
On our way down the pier back to the ship we were entertained by our first penguin sighting. We had passed on penguin tours at every port, planning to see them in the Falklands. This was our last chance, but 6 hours on a bus to see messy birds was not something we wanted to do. Imagine our surprise to find one little guy swimming away right by the ship.
