Ushuaia - fin del mundo

Sunday, 17th Dec, Los Nires Hotel, Ushuaia. Post 2
Its crazy to be staring at sun rays at 9pm. Its even crazier to be woken up by sunrise at 3am. This place is disorienting us - used to as we are, to 7am sunrise and 7pm sunsets through the year in Singapore.

Ushuaia in summer seems to be on a revenge mission to get all the sunlight it missed out during the winters. Days are 19 hrs long with night just making a cameo appearance.

Dinner was zuppa asparagos or Asparagus soup, salad and wine. We - esp the 3 veggies have had enough bread and pasta for the past 5 days. We will drive to Lake Fugnano tomorrow in a Hertz car and that should be fun.

Ps: This couplet came up today in our chat-
ragon mein daurtay firney ke hum nahi kayal,
Jo aankh se hi na utra, woh lahu kya hai
(We're not enamoured by that which merely runs through the veins,
What's blood's worth if it doesn't show in your eyes) - a revolutionary's call to stand up and fight.
