There is only place in the whole town where you can buy pastries, croissonts, etc for breakfast. It is the first little grocery store that is on the left side of the road as you are driving into the town. Every morning at about 8:30 they get a new batch delivered from a bakery in Puerto Madryn.

Car cemetery

Puerto Pirámides is the last place in the world where you think you can find a collection of crased cars, but of course, accidents happen everywhere, and these three cars where "parked" in front of the police station.

Puerto Pirámides es el último lugar en el mundo en donde piensas que puedes encontrar una colección de autos chocados, pero por supuesto, los accidentes suceden en todas partes, y estos tres coches estaban "estacionados" frente a la comisaría.

Living-room?

"Arena" ("Sand") is the name of a restaurant situated on the second road to the beach; I looked it from the outside, so I cannot put it as a restaurant tip, but I saw this open-air-living-room, which is not a room at all! It was raining that morning, but I can imagine a great time there during summer nights.

"Arena" es el nombre de un restaurante situado en la segunda bajada a la playa; lo vi desde afuera, por lo que no lo puedo aconsejar como restaurante, pero vi esta sala de estar al aire libre, que no es una sala en absoluto! Estaba lloviendo aquella mañana, pero puedo imaginarme una grata velada allí en las noches de verano.

Garbage cans

Even the garbage cans are picturesque at Puerto Pirámides: actually, they are not cans, but wooden boxes painted with brillant colours.
I found these two "garbage boxes" and this flowery plant at the first road to the beach.

Hasta las latas de basura son pintorescas en Puerto Pirámides: en verdad, no son latas, sino cajas de madera pintadas de colores brillantes.
Encontré estas dos "cajas de basura" y esta planta florecida en la primera calle que baja a la playa.

Moby Dick

Some shops have original ornamentations: the picture shows the main door of a whale-watching trips agency, which is decorated with whale's ribs and skull (click to enlarge and see the details).

Algunos comercios se destacan por la originalidad de sus decoradios: la foto muestra la entrada principal de una agencia de avistaje de ballenas, la cual está decorada con las costillas y el cráneo de una ballena.
