The Official 'End of the Road'

While we <i>were</i> in Ushuaia, and the self proclaimed 'end of the world', we hadn't actually made it to the official 'end of the road'. To remedy that fact we left the hostal and headed towards Parque Nacional Tierra del Fuego, where Ruta 3 actually comes to an official end. An hour later and a few more miles of bumpy gravel we were at the farthest point south that we could drive on the road. Anything further would require a boat and involve the continent of Antartica. More pictures were required, then we sat in amazement, just looking at the van, wondering how two gringos with mediocre Spanish and mechanical skills were able to get themselves this far from home. 18,723 miles and 134 days on the road to be exact. Pretty amazing if I do say so myself.
