The fur seals were just as much fun as the penguins... on some days even more entertaining.

Watch to the end to see one smile at me. Seriously... if that's not a fur seal smile... I don't know what is?!

These penguins kept us amused for ages... chasing the newly fledged chicks into the water! 🐧 🐧 🐧 We were in kayaks... so I only managed to capture a few seconds of the fun.

Bet you think I've increased the speed of this... but this is real time!

I don't quite know what they were lining up for... but they seemed to take it very seriously!

On days when the world feels a little overwhelming... I have some amazing little penguin memories to make me smile! Enjoy this one for today 🐧🐧🐧

Last night... we celebrated like the Argentinians do... with an asado. Just when we thought we hadn't eaten enough these past couple of weeks... we found out that we could!

Our hosts, Maya & Marcos (La Terracita Asado Experience) made us very welcome on their rooftop terrace in Palermo... and along with our fellow travellers... we made our way through seven courses!

Most items were cooked on the parilla (BBQ)... with a few other surprises along the way... including three great Argentinian wines... and our first taste of Fernet & Coke!

It was the perfect way to end this trip of a lifetime... one I'll never forget!

It's our last day in Buenos Aires... well-timed to allow us to wander the San Telmo Street Fair & enjoy lunch at the San Telmo Market.

The city was still half asleep when we started out at 9am... but definitely came to life around lunchtime!

We walked back via Puerto Madrero... home to some very fancy looking hotels & other high rises... and then through the main part of town to our hotel.

We head home in the morning... with an early start & a long day ahead of us!

Despite the potential for rain today... we had a gloriously sunny day in Uruguay! An hour's ferry ride took us to Colonia del Sacramento... across the "Silver River". As you can see... the water in chocolate milk coloured.

We were picked up from our hotel & taken to the Buquebus terminal. The trip was smooth... despite the horrendous Immigration process (in both directions)!

Colonia is a quaint UNESCO heritage listed town... that is full of charm. Our local guide (Alejandra) was amazing... sharing a little about Uruguayan hiatory & culture.

Her recommendation for lunch was perfect... overlooking the river... even watching the ferry come back for its next pickup.

Free time allowed us to wander & explore more of the cobblestone streets!

I highly recommend a day tour across to this little gem when you're in Buenos Aires... or maybe a couple of nights to fully soak up the atmosphere!

Today's experience... learning to make empanadas & alfajores! This hands on class was lots of fun... and we made so much delicious food that we had to leave some there! Afterwards... we strolled through the streets of Palermo... filled with amazing street art & some beautiful buildings.

Food tours are my favourite way to explore a new neighbourhood... while also getting to know the food that the locals enjoy. Last night's tour in Palermo was outstanding... made even more so by our guide, Denis.

We arrived into Ushuaia last night... well in time for our disembarkation this morning. We've said goodbye to all the amazing friends that we've made on this cruise... and fly back to Buenos Aires for a few days.

This experience has far exceeded my expectations & has left me wanting more. More Antarctica... more penguins, seals & whales... and more Viking!

Watch out BA... here we come!
