Punta Arenas & accross The Magellan Straits.
A memorial to the 'disappeared' of Punta Arenas.
During the military dictatorship of Pinochet many political activists, potential adversary's and intellectuals vanished following the coup in 1973.
Pinochet was eventually arrested in London in 1998 for his role in the 'caravan of 'death' and died on Dec 10th 2006.
Boarding the ferry to cross the Magellan straights on a beautiful still morning.
Punta Arenas is famed for it's wind and has ropes in the streets for the old and light to hang onto!
The previous two days the wind was at a steady 100km p/h.
Black skies over Tierra del Fuego.
A splash of colour at Porvenir's harbour.
South End Cafe, but no egg and chips.
