Ushuaia

Ushuaia the most southern city in the world.  It took 2 buses and about 30 hours to get there costing 650pesos.  Our first bus was late and we almost missed our connecting bus.  We had to cross into Chile and then back into Argentina to get there.  In Ushuaia we stayed in the Antarctica hostel for 70pesos a night.  It's a nice hostel with great views and a comfortable atmosphere but the rules posted up all over the hostel was annoying.  We visited Martial glacier which was the first glacier I ever saw and the most unimpressive glacier I have ever seen.  The guys I was with trekked up onto the glacier but I stayed and view it from further down.  It does have great views of Ushuaia and the beagle channel and It's free (a 7km walk up before you start trekking about another 500 or more metres up to the glacier) but that would be the only reason why I would visit there.  Listed the local museum where the old jail is, a lot of information about Ushuaia and the Antarctic.  Went out to a lounge/bar(Kaitek) across from the hostel a nice place but not very many people out we were the first ones in there at 1am and we didn't leave till 4, people in Argentina go out very late and mist bars stay open until 6am.  As we read when you are in Ushuaia don't go into a nightclub as they are all brothels.
