World’s Biggest Dinosaur

In 2013, scientists discovered a new species of dinosaur in Patagonia. The creature lives 95 million years ago and is now considered the biggest creature to have ever walked the planet.

We didn’t have time to stop at the museum in Trelew because it was a long drive to see penguins, but I was delighted to see this roadside dinosaur.

Trelew intrigues me, as well, since it was founded by Welsh immigrants. As our guide explained, unlike most Europeans, “They weren’t out to conquer. They simply wanted to live with us. They taught their children Spanish and were very peaceful.”

It’s certainly not the usual tale of foreigners showing up in foreign lands. Makes me curious if any Welsh traditions have been woven into the local culture.Meer informatie
