The End of The World

in Blog, Grand Adventures, Travel on 02/03/19

Ushuaia
Ushuaia is the southernmost city in the world. It’s perched on a steep hill below the Martial Glacier and south of the Beagle Channel. I can see why its a town that attracts tourist interested in fishing, hiking and the great outdoors.
Tierra Del Fuego National Park
We walk off the ship and got a private guide to take us to Tierra Del Fuego National Park. It was a beautiful day and the guide told us that it was a rare to have sunshine and no rain.
We went on a short walk in the woods and also saw the southernmost post office. Lot’s of people buy a postcard and mail to friends and family. Some even mail it to themselves.
The World’s Southernmost Post Office
The Train to the End of the World
The Train of the End of the World draws a lot of tourist (we took a pass). It was orginally a train used by prisoners to transport timber.
Tour Bus
I thought this was a fun tour bus. In the early 1900’s Ushuaia had a large prison. The prisoners built the streets, the bridges, and many public buildings. There are tours around town and in the prison, which is now a museum.
Handicraft Fair
On the way back to the port I did a little shopping at the handicraft fair. It had lots of artists and craftsman who were busy making and selling – yes I did buy a few things. Including a t-shirt that boasts “The End of the World.”

Oh, hi there!

I like to describe myself as a woman of leisure but in reality I’m Mr. B’s project manager. It’s not a bad gig and it does come with many benefits. I plan our trips, as we travel the world. I'm kept busy creating and designing our beautiful homes. The best perk is I usually chose the movie we see every Friday. I’m a part-time artist, with aspirations of becoming a full-time artist. Painting, photography and all types of crafting are my true loves. I like to say I’m an artist of many mediums and master of none.
My finest creations would be my five children. I’ve also allow them to parent my thirteen amazing grandchildren. My grandchildren are all brilliant, beautiful, spirited and take after me – their Mimi.

Stay updated!
