To reduce the costs of the rental car we hired, we created a handout titled “Share a ride?” and put it at the blackboard in the hostel in Puerto Madryn where we stayed. Just a few minutes later we got a call from a really nice couple from Israel. We made an appointment for the next day to visit the Península Valdéz again, because two of the roads were closed the day before so we could not visit Punta Norte, the favourite place of the Orcas …
We checked out the times of high tide and low tide to have the best chance for spotting the killer whales, we displaced the lunch into the car during the ride, we accelerated the speed to reach the top of the peninsula in time and f i n a l l y we saw them – it was a m a z i n g !!
