The good ship Magallenes

On Mon 25 sept we boarded the Magallenes, the ship that would be our home for nearly the next four days. Sleeping in little bunks cabins, there were a large group of gringos of various nationalities travelling onboard alongside the few Chileans making the journey.





I really enjoyed the whole boat experience, it was great to have space to chill alone and yet have a new bunch of people to meet and chat with. And the scenery just seemed to increase in splendor the further south we went. It was the perfect setting for the Chronicles of Narnia, some of my favourite books as a child, which I read through as we journied on.









Stopped off at Puerto Eden on our last day, a remote village of 167 people, that's more than a days boat ride from any other settlement of any sort. The ferry is the only way the people have of transporting things to and from the mainland. Amazing little place.
