Today we got up before the sun to head to the airport. Our taxi driver was scheduled to pick us up at 4:45am. Yes, 4:45 IN THE MORNING! Which is especially early because we didn’t get home from the Tango show until after 11:30 and we had to pack. I got like 3 hours of sleep. This is no bueno. thetwinsontour need their beauty sleep.

Anyways, we were so tired we forgot to take the traditional airplane selfie. I mean who doesn’t take an airplane selfie? Clearly we were deliriously tired and slept the whole first half of the flight even though we were in the worst row on the airplane. Yes they gave us the dreaded non-reclining row in front of the exit row. Our only consolation is that we didn’t have to have a 3rd person in our row. Our flight was direct, but not nonstop (sound familiar Southwest airlines flyers?) I was awake enough to hear them say to stay on the plane. I was not awake enough to see almost everyone exit, or see the cleaning crew come on to spruce up the plane.

We were in Ushuaia by 12:30 and to our Airbnb by 1:00. We are in a great location one block up the hill from the main street. The whole town is built on a hill. Luckily we are only a block up the hill and the main street is on level ground.

Basically our activities consisted of eating an acceptable hamburger and wandering around town for a while, and visiting tourist information to figure out what to do tomorrow. Most of the shops were closed because its Sunday, so we saved a lot of money and suitcase space.

Time is very deceptive because it doesn’t get dark here until late (probably because its “summer”). We didn’t head out for dinner until 9pm because we didn’t realize how late it was. But 9pm is actually the proper dinner time in Argentina. They are very European like that.

We did eat Italian for dinner, but it wasn’t anything amazing or worth writing about. I only mention it for my mother.

So today was a pretty laid back and easy day just liked we planned.

That is enough for today I think.

Love,

PS. again only 1 picture included because they make the blog crash. But also because we didn’t take many today.
