Spent another night in boring Punta Arenas.
Attempt to visit museum and get ripped off by taxi driver.
Closed
Museum is closed but they let me in anyhow.
Must have taken pitty on me after my taxi driver incident.
Paine in the rain
ABorted any chance of my visiting the misty spires.
Have aquired this picture to illustrate the breathtaking naturism.
Torres del Paine
Torres del Paine represents a trekkers utopia: Glaciated mountains, lots of wildlife and few people, plus the danger of cold, damp musty mornings, lengthly treks and horrific semi-polar conditions to boot.
A unique and heady mix bringing climbers, trekkers, mountain bikers and hairy slacker types from all around the planet.
Porto Natales
Having spent a night in non-descript Porto Arenas, I’ve moved on to gateway to Torres del Paine, the Porto Natales, also in Chile.
Boring Bus
Have taken boring bus journey over to Chile.
This should satisfy my curiousity for the place they call ‘Torres del Painne’.
