Today in Argentina

Friday, February 4, 2022

This evening we made it back to Ushuaia - the southernmost city in the
world. It's tucked between the Beagle Channel and the southernmost slopes of the Andes.
Ushuaia is the capital of and gateway to
the celebrated Tierra del Fuego, the "Land
of Fire," named by Spaniards upon seeing
the constant flames burned by the
indigenous Yámana to keep warm. This
largely unspoiled region comprises the
large island of Tierra del Fuego and
countless Chilean and Argentinean islands.
