From Baston to Antarctica


Our journey to Ushuaia, the city at the end of the world, on the southernmost tip of South America took us via Frankfurt and Buenos Aires. After 37 hours of travelling we walked out of the airport building to be greeted with a spectacular view of the city, multi coloured buildings set against the backdrop of snow capped mountains. Exhausted from our journey and just needing a shower and sleep, we decided to save exploring the city until the following morning, but as we woke up the weather wasn't in our favour. Rain and snow had set in for the day, in fact apart from a brief 34°c interlude in Buenos Aires as we waited for a connecting  flight, it really didn't feel much different to the weather we had left behind in the UK
