Museum and ice cream

Early busses seem to be the standard, and to El Calafate it was no different. A bit after 7 we were all packed again and walking to our shuttle bus location where we found a pretty cheap deal. Time to say goodbye to El Chaltén and Fitz Roy, we really enjoyed the hostel/camping, town, and area.

The upside of the early busses is that you arrive early too, so after lunch at our new fancy-looking hostel we took a free shuttle in town to the local glacier museum. Which wasn't bad, although it was a bit overpriced and we felt more could have been done with it, especially the 'educational' videos which seemed either advertising for local activities or high level info hastily put together with semi-relevant footage. So much for the first museum experience of our trip. After that we felt like we deserved our first fresh ice cream of the trip. It was huge and very tasty 😊 And to conclude the day even better, instead of our standard tomatoes sauce we had a nice curry a la Franzi for dinner.Read more
