Wow. Talk about 'the middle of no where', Puerto Madryn is it. Heck Patagonia itself is remote (and kind of barren) to begin with and his place is in the middle of that (though on the ocean).

An aside: Ever since I was a kid in the 50's 'Patagonia' fascinated me. Maybe it's just the name??? Really, say 'Patagonia' over and over and over -- it's cool :-)

Then again, 'Outer Mongolia'(which no longer 'exists') fascinated me too but saying that over and over really doesn't have the same affect. Hmmm?? Maybe I just liked really weird places out in the middle of no where.

yes I was excellent in Geography. I had a huge world map on my bedroom wall I 'studied' almost every night.

I was a map guy myself.

Ted Turner has a 10,000 acre compound down there somewhere and when he was asked what he does with it he said, "that's where I'll go when the revolution in America starts." (That was about 20 years ago though)
