Nothing much can be said about Puerto Natales — except there are many well fed dogs living a happy life on the streets.
I boarded the bus to Torres del Paine, and arrived in the afternoon at the park entrance. After having watched a little movie about the dos and don’ts in the park, I took a shuttle bus to Refugio las Torres. Here, I made the acquaintance of Pia (Chilean), Valentina (Chilean), Marc (US), Francisco (Chilean), Lars (Norwegian), Steinar (Norwegian) — nice guys that I would be meeting during the next couple of days again and again.
