pumped more nature more wildlife the plan is we're going to be heading out to Punta Del Gada visiting a lighthouse having some lunch there's an option to do a boat tour so yeah it's gonna be another fun day I really enjoyed our first tour here so let's see what this one's all about let's do it safety first lifejackets next up a boat tour we're going out in zodiacs to try and get a little bit closer to the sea lions not too too close but we want to admire them see what they're up to baby penguins the person swimming around worst thing you notice is its water this excursion was one of the highlights of the day so we were both really glad that we opted for it even though it was an additional activity we got to enjoy stunning these of the coastline plus we encountered all sorts of sea birds including cormorants by the hundreds this looks like a little tunnel a cave of sorts and we go oh my what are we looking for is the question at one point we even ducked into a cave where a guide pointed out the layers of marine fossils along the rock evidence that these clips were once part of the Atlantic Ocean seabed the boat took us out to the same sea colony that we had hiked to the previous day but this time around we were able to see them from a much closer vantage point alright guys so we took the additional excursion it was 750 pesos per person yes roughly 20 US dollars at the moment and it was fantastic like we got up close and intimate with sea lion-o many other things because when you go to the typical viewing point there just you just see them from a distance when you go on the boat you could think get right up close to them yeah and yeah it was just fantastic the weather was perfect I just think like in terms of follow you it's something that I would definitely recommend if you're on this tour tack it on we then continued on to Khaled Ovilus which is sometimes nicknamed a geographic accident it's basically along a narrow body of water that's been naturally closed off by a strip of land with only a small opening connecting it to the sea we were told this is usually a great spot to see elephant seals however since we arrived at the end of the season there weren't too many of them left on the beach what we did see were lots of penguins this was a much smaller colony in comparison to the one we had visited in San Lorenzo so two days prior but there were still lots of curious Penguins waddling around we then drove towards estancia punta delgada which over the years has taken on a few different roles including post office military building and now hotel and restaurant this was a reficul lunch stop of the day alright guys so we have arrived at faro punta delgada they have a restaurant here so this is where we're gonna be eating lunch we are starving what a busy day so let's go in and see what's on the menu alright guys so we're sitting down at the table orders have been placed we've got a basket of homemade artisanal bread with some Mayo garlic mayo it was good stuff we've already had quite a bit we also ordered some beef empanadas already devoured that one now we're waiting for the main which is the lamb stew which I'm really excited to try its Patagonian stew so it'll be our first time trying this should be tasty for dessert we've ordered flan we can do it to the legend same as the other day on the tour it was delicious and can't wait to have more and yeah we're just drinking some I local gossip fizzy water gotta stay hydrated allow me to introduce you to Patagonian stew we have lamb onions carrots a better rice it looks as simple but it smells wonderful I'm gonna try and grab a little bite of everything get all the flavors mixing combining Wow not as very nice meat is nice and tender it just like melts in your mouth like honestly it looks like a very simple recipe but it's really good I'm I'm enjoying this and we also ordered more of the empanadas can never get enough of those never got enough they're so delicious fresh out of the oven yeah and the thing that makes these empanadas so delicious too is that they are stuffed with ingredients it's not one of those cheap styles whether it's mostly dough this is mostly ingredients in the middle so good huh and put at a time guys my my favorite Argentine snack free meal snack how are them especially made juice in the middle tons of meat a little bit of vegetable a little bit of egg some olive to perfection it's Hardy things very Hardy food this would be like perfect in the fall winter kind of weather yeah so this next place is called Illidan L and we are going to be hiking halfway down a cliff to get a closer look at elephant seals it is super super windy out here so come along in the afternoon we visited punta delgada a stretch of beach where the elephant seals come to breed and later undergo the molting process where they shed their skin but like we mentioned earlier it was the very end of the season and there were maybe five or six of them left on the beach in fact at one point we watched as one of the elephant seals started dragging itself back into the water ready to return to the open ocean and spend a few months feeding well we saw the elephant seals what did you think of our friends it was great I mean it was quite the climb to get down there yes very very sandy we were like slipping a bit once you got down there you were pretty close yeah and yeah this what's been fast thing about the second day of touring is that like the Peninsual Valdes island has all these different secrets nooks and crannies worth exploring and it's been really fun yeah and it was fun watching the elephant seals because they don't really move around a lot they just like flop dance a little bit they're like us after a big lunch I think yes but anyways I think that was the last stop of the day we're getting back on the bus now and we're gonna start driving towards fort commanding view yeah that's really cool and that pretty much concludes our tour we then got in the van and drove back to portal modeling where we immediately went in search of that delicious seafood pizza we'd had a few days earlier the first thing came support some adrene a few nights ago before we went to the peninsula we came to this restaurant we noticed it had 50% off Pizza specials for between 4:00 and 8:00 p.m. Pizza was so good we ordered this room pizza I've never had it has this much trouble it's loaded and it has also has a lot of cheese so I can't wait to have it again been fantasizing about this all day we're thinking like who knew were coming back here for a couple nights and we're like I've gotta try this again and this restaurant has called Shawna if anyone's wondering in the next couple of videos we'll be exploring the city of Puerto modeling visiting its museums feasting on more seafood and learning all about the Welsh settlers who arrived on these very Shores so stay tuned for that and we'll see you soon you
