My son, Joshua served as a missionary in southern Chile from 2003-05. Shortly after he completed his mission, he wanted to personally introduce me to some of the wonderful Chilean friends that he acquired during his mission service. So, in late December 2005, with his father at his side, Joshua returned to Chile. One of the first cities that we visited was Punta Arenas, which is located next to the Strait of Magellan. The sights and sounds of Punta Arenas are remarkable. It was there that I watched and heard penguins raising their young chicks. It was there that I saw a large, flightless bird, called a nandu (or lesser rhea) run along a dirt road.
