Stowing away

We made our escape from Southern Patagonia on the NaviMag ferry 'cruise'.  While not exactly cruise-ship luxury it permitted us a beautiful ride through numerous fjords and close up views of the massive 13000 sq km Patagonia ice field.  More importantly we were allowed to flee our captors - over dramatizing to be sure - in Puerto Natales.

As expected we made fast friends on the boat, enjoyed many siestas, survived one wavy night on the high seas of the Pacific, and were entertained by far too many games of NaviMag bingo on our final evening.  1000km and 4 days later we found ourselves in the charming town of Puerto Varas in the Lakes District.  By definition still in Patagonia, but a world away.

We will stuff ourselves full of fresh seafood and colorful fruits and vegetables in the coming days.

Enjoy the pictures
