Dispatch
#2 January 5, 2002. Punta
Arenas, Chile. Hello
Friends, Our morning run was just the ticket to
build a great appetite. With that to motivate us, we
ran the breakfast bar at our hotel out of food. And
then it was off to view penguins in their natural
habitat. The photogenic Magellanic penguins that
dwell on the tip of South America are ground
burrowers. So we were delighted to discover that
they are not at all shy. Several modeled their
striped tuxedos with pride while fluffy fledglings
looked on. Quite a rewarding outing.
Part
of the team decided to test the waters with rod and
reel as we wait for an improvement in the weather.
Happily there has been some improvement and our
spirits are high. |
