Tuesday 4th March
Its been a while since I updated you all so here's what I've been up to...
Chiloe was really lovely, I enjoyed staying here and was nice to have a relaxing few days without and major activity! I stayed for 3 nights in Ancud in the north of the island.
Took an excursion to see some penguins... the only place where you can see 2 different species in the same place (apparently)... the Humbolt and the Magallan penguins. I was lucky enough to not only catch a glimpse of but to get really close to a very rare type of penguin which is easy to tell apart from the others because it is almost 6 foot tall (see photo)!
Took a bus to Castro, the island's capital, for a day... saw some palifitos (which are houses built on stilts by the river). Saw a couple for sale which was tempting!
On Thursday I got a bus back to mainland Chile and on to Pucon.
