(Night agitated at San Julian. It required a bit of noise. The Pictured are the friends of Nautical The boys Delfín.Gracias for lamb!)
(Night quiet in San Julián with friends and family of Don Vittorio)
(Starting at this stage to Puerto Santa Cruz)
How are friends? We are ready for a new stage, ready for the lonely coast of Santa Cruz to Rio Gallegos. I can not thank you all for the messages relating to the accident Diego, thank you very much everybody. Message for friend Javier Saez, the complete history of Peninsula Valdes is ready to report in detail. In a couple of months we will have how we live this incredible road "ghost."
Well, we lived in San Julian hectic days with the best wave of the friends of Nautical Dolphin. The first band behaved as well as our friend Anita that we bank at home and friends Pasta House Don Vittorio who were responsible for our healthy diet. Although the incident had a great time.

(The outputs of the cliff, they hide beneath the levees)
We started a new phase with a Nano, once more being two on the road and in ancient times above. The Gypsy is now in recovery and hope to stage it for Rio Grande - Ushuaia. In the middle we have some challenges, reach Gallegos is one of the worst weather of the trip these days and just across the Strait of Magellan by the eastern side, about 34 km dale dale without looking to the side. Meanwhile we are moving forward step by step pace.
On the way to Santa Cruz San Julian appeared rarest levees throughout the journey. Are extensive, and miles and miles out to sea about 1000 meters. This means that we have to work very well with the tides. 
(The Natural Mystic stranded on the sandbar. We had to walk a few hundred meters)
(The balcony, the giant sandbar Santa Cruz)
(Leaving at 5 in the morning to avoid the wind)
not ask me how, but we get serious and put together a strategic plan to avoid shoals. We had to do because the first day haul of 300 meters to both kayakers injured, inflamed tendons to load too much weight. Reviewing letter, tide tables, forecast and praying to the gods we move towards Puerto Punta Quilla. I make a brief chronicle of the tie between kayakers and wind, a new battle of trench warfare as we call it.
(18 km of cliffs with no exits)
Day 1 of 6. We went running for San Julian and little wind to move it meet the high restinga and slowing before the cliffs, 18 miles end. These are places where you have to catch the wind. If he pulls back there to return to the starting point.
(Towards the battle into the wind .....)
(The smallest lighthouse Argentina)
Day 2. Miraculously, the wind is going to put out promptly at 5 o'clock in the morning we do 30 miles. At 10 am the battle began, wind at 60 km per hour and jump into the trench. We left the sea as we could and take refuge behind a bush. We spent the cliffs!

(refugees after the killing, the background wind!)
Day 3. Lost day, the wind blows at 60 all day.
Day 4. Again at 5 am but the wind got up early and began the tug of war club and stick. After reconciling, and after we left the sea 24 km almost defeated.
Day 5. The Patagonian miracle, no wind, the sea Ironing advantage we gain low miles. Some wind rose and we stopped the levee. We stopped to repair the Nano kayak keel was worn by the drag and it started to rise slows to zero wind and the temperature was 23 degrees. We charred, almost shot me to swim with the dolphins that are swimming everywhere alongside ours.

(Sky or sea?)
Day 6. We crossed to Punta Quilla, we left the boat in the prefecture and stayed there in the detachment where we attended to first. Shower and nap. Started to get everything ready to leave for Gallegos.
We are now in Puerto Santa Cruz where we received the local prefecture, went to the radio and cable to present ourselves in society.
The landscape up here is not the best. Of the 160 kilometers coastal formations there are very few eye-catching. The cliffs and ravines are always something impressive and generate a moment of tension. Especially when you see the gray clouds come and the wind speeds could not predict how far it will go. Sometimes mild traetormentas sometimes riding and trampling mercilessly. Somehow I can say I'll miss the wind that sometimes agrees with the sea and landscapes show you wild with giant waves foam flying in all directions. It's a simple show of force that lets you clear the boss.

(If the day is over .... it is bright orange wind the next day and never fails.)
oriented to the south We went west to the estuary Coig where the road becomes to the southeast and no change to Cabo Virgenes. That's good because the prevailing westerly winds and we would cross through tail. The challenge is to Coig in three days with good weather.
(Many guanacos on the way)
For the first time we make the dolphins swim alongside our kayaks. It's amazing how many dolphins and porpoises that are in the levees and the rivers.
I have no more to tell, now comes the Monte Leon National Park we will present new and better scenery.
