Dispatch created from web
Today Cath, Grant, Rob and Kim had their first look around Punta Arenas. The team did the traditional thing and visited the indian at the foot of the Magellan statue in the main plaza. Rubbing the toe has been a ritual for South-bound expeditions for years, and it has the shine to prove it.

Next we all stopped by the ALE offices to check in and catch up on things. It was great to catch up with some old friends and have a chat. It's been a big and busy season and they're doing an amazing job.

From there we did a little touristing, visiting the local cemetery with it's ornate tombs and interesting hedgerows, before heading down to the foreshore and following the coastal track back into town. Here lunch was in order, so we stopped in for a giant sandwich at Lomit's, another Antarctican tradition. This evening the team are sorting their clothing and gear and will continue getting ready tomorrow. There has been talk of exercise but so far only Kim has actually been out for a run!
