Bahia Blanca
By the middle of the next day we were all on board the Beagle & most thoroughly after our little adventure did we enjoy its luxuries. In the evening we moved our anchorage and stood in towards our old place.

Captain Robert Fitzroy:
One of our party on shore (who is not likely to forget building a mark on Mount Hermoso) discovered many curious fossils in some low cliffs under the mount; and judging from what Mr. Darwin then found, future collectors may reap a rich harvest there, as well as at Point Alta.
