in Puerto Madryn

Just got here after a 17 hour bus ride. It wasnt that bad as the seats are like business class plane seats wide made of leather or fake leather. Also there is a contraption that pulls down off the back of the chair in front of you that you can use as a ramp for your legs. You aren,t laying down flat which I sorta expected because it is called a bed seat but it is more comfortable than just a regular chair.

So I'm now about mid way up Argentina on the Atlantic side. The temperatures here are much higher so I have put my winter jacket away. Patagonia, down south, was super super windy and colder. Super windy.

On the way up all I mostly saw was flat desert like plains and the occasional ostrich. Which I guess is unusual. I forgot to say that you see wild flamingos down in the southern parts. I never did see a pengin, but there are some near here too.

I haven't seen much of the city yet as I popped in to check the internet for hostel recommendations.
