After a great time in Warsaw, expanding the family in Chicagoland and enjoying South America in Buenos Aires, we moved to Shanghai, China.

Weekend in Patagonia: Penguins
Next on the list were the 'pinguinos'. On Valdes Peninsula we found a great spot where they could be observed from very close. Nina & Stasiu spent about two minutes watching them and then changed their attention to collecting small pebbles which they found much more interesting. Later on our trip we went to Punta Tombo where the largest colony of Magellanic penguins in South America can be found. Thousands of penguins come to mate and nest in this area from September to April. They were literallly all around us, protecting their nest with little ones or eggs, waddling around, sunbathing, relaxing. Again very impressive and some great photo opportunities!
