Ushuaia

Ushuaia is a city in southern Argentina. It's the southernmost city in the world in fact. It's situated between a bay and the Andes Mountains.
Here I am on a boat cruise around the Beagle Channel.
I got to see sea lions.
And a lighthouse!
Here is the port at night.

This is a charming little tea house that overlooks the valley.

I went on an off-roading trip through the mountains.

We drove along the shore of a lake hidden in the mountains.

Ushuaia started as a penal colony. Here I am at the old prison, now a museum.

I love the pictures, I think the trip down south was worth it even without the penguins. Although I am surprised you have a picture of the sea lions:)

Oh my gosh! That's so gorgeous! Don't you love ports and lighthouses? Yay! I bet you're missing it already, but remember that if people saw pictures of Utah, they'd see some of the most beautiful sights on earth!
