Punta Arenas

An interesting city to spend a couple of nights at the end of our
tour. The weather cooperated in being very cold and rainy for the
entire time so we were forced to do laundry and catch up on all things
Internet related. A couple of highlights: King crab (delicious), the
cemetery, and an Indian's foot.
The cemetery was actually recommended in guide books as 'a place to
see' because of the varied history of the immigrants who settled in
the area - a very large percentage of Croatian settlers interestingly.
The Indian's foot was attached to a full statue in the main square,
it's said that if you touch it you'll come back to that place some day
- we shall see.
