Antarctica -- October-November 2010

Punta Arenas, Chile. In town square, There are perhaps 20 carvel-like kiosks of this type in the town squanre. There had been several foot races (5K, 10K, etc.) in town that morning. Possibly because of the crowds at this event, all of the kiosks seemed to be open and in use. I have no way of knowing what a "normal" Sunday is like here, of course.

Have now seen seemingly well-fed (and possibly well-cared for) dogs like this, who appeared to be runniing free (well.maybe not running, but "napping free") in several places in South America. Not sure if they are strays (ot "town dogs," or if they are let out to roam during the day and go back to their homes at night. The dogs were all well-behaved.

Punto Arenas

Town Square. There were several caravan (or “gypsy- wagon”-shaped) kiosks like this in the square. They were shops for souviners and craft items.

Street dogs like this were pretty common. All seemed very well-behaved – and most were quite clean
