    We also use the word “camp” in Argentina to define countryside, albeit here is regarded as sheer Spanglish. The islands, being the huge wildlife reserve and nesting grounds they are, have probably more than a just good place to go to watch birds, waterfowl and sea-mammals, wild flowers, sunsets, &c. It has been for ages a place I'd want to go and spend two or three weeks, but you know how's life these postmodern days and I found yet no free time to do it. It'll be one of my two destinations should I make it before kicking the bucket. The other is India. Cheers!
