The hand of god

We've managed to fill our first four days at the end of the world and still some things left to see - just!

Yesterday, we went to the Maradona exhibition that is currently touring the country. We saw the "hand of god" shirt (and lots of replays of the event) along with lots of other Maradona memorablia. They also had Gary Lineker's shirt from that (in)famous match with his name written in biro on the washing label - I wonder if his mum wrote it!

We've also been to several museums, one of which was in a former prison. Everything had perfect English translations except for the bit about the Falklands War - funny that! We've seen several statues down here to the "Heroes of the Islas Malvinas" (aka Falkland Islands) with the islands painted in Argentine colours...

Today, we took a trip on the train at the end of the world. It's an old steam train which was once used to ferry prisoners to and from "work" every day. The train ends in the big national park here, Tierra del Fuego, although it does take over an hour to go just 4 miles! Not content with our recent treks, we spent the day on a 6 hour route march through the Lenga Forests of the park, however, we will be spending tomorrow recovering in cafes with mugs of tea and pieces of gateau!
