UWC Day 040 – Ushuaia, Argentina – Penguin Rookery and King Penguin
Did a close repeat of the Beagle Channel tour (exact same catamaran and everything), but this one went further to the penguin rookery as well, and got to see 3 different types of penguins, including the majestic king penguin.

UWC Day 028 – Buenos Aires, Argentina – City Photography Tour and Flight to Puerto Madryn
Flight to Puerto Madryn to catch a few extra tours was at 5pm, so instead of being rushed all day I cancelled my tour down the river a couple days ago, and opted for an AirBnB experience instead.
