We made it to Puerto Madryn today from Mar del Plata. It was supposed to be a 15 hour overnight ride, but it ended up being 20 hours altogether! The ride included too-narrow highways, chicken dinner, a little nausea, sweets for breakfast, and a stop with the military drug enforcement police, who apparently found a box with marijuana in the storage area of our bus, which delayed us about 40 minutes. Needless to say, that was a bit much for us, so we took it easy today and found a nice hostel to relax in. We will be venturing out to the Peninsula Valdes tomorrow, right nearby. It is a big wildlife preserve where we hope to spot some penguins, sea lions, and a whale if we're really lucky (whale watching season just ended). More pictures coming soon, we promise!
