Am incredibly gutted as I just wrote you a huge email and
lost the bloody lot! I am in the peninsular Valdes where
there are whales, orcas, sealions, elephant seals and
penguins! I finally saw one after all that time going
through New Zealand trying to spot one! encountered most of
these creatures at close hand and it was fantastic. I´ll
write more later as I cannot be bothered ot write EVERYTHING again!
one thing though, if anyone has the lemon jelly CD or has heard
the song about the patagonian male elephant seals will know what
I am talking about when I say they made the strangest sounds and
that everything he says is so true! I was just laughing
thinking about it the whole time. met a lovely german couple and
english couple who I had dinner with last night, we got through
three bottles of wine and enough tapas to keep us all happy,
when the bill came it was 27 pesos!!! thats like 6 pounds!!! for
everyone! bring on more wine thats what I say! anyway, I´m
heading for bariloche tonight, a lovely little mountain village
in the Andes backing a huge lake and a national park. I´m not
totally equipped for this cold though and might have to go
shopping! the obnly thing is I havet o watch my cash now as this
town has actually run outt of money believe it or not, the
german guy went to the ATM and they couldnt gove any cash out,
nowhere is accepting or changing travellers cheques or dollars
and instead all the banks are issuing ´creditos´, small bits of
paper with an amount equivalent to what you want written on it!
crazy business, in one day last week the dollar was valued at
2.6 pesos int he morning and then 3 in the evening, people are
trying to buy dollars with their money in the banks and then
sell those dollars in the evening thus making themselves some
easy cash but the banks are freezing everyones accounts and
limiting the cash they can take out! no one knows where they
are from one day to the next! those of you that havent heard
from mike, the last I heard he was in thailand working his
andrews magic with the thai ladies and having an israeli girl
hanging on his every word. He was heading for Laos for a week
adn then wanted to stay in thailand for a bit until he heads off
to Aus. anyway love you all take care and keep smiling!
big hugs Em
