Another update


Here is the view of Buenos Aires as we are pulling away. You can see only a small portion of the skyline.

Our stateroom - or rather, state-closet! Very compact.


The tender - or shuttle boat - that takes us to shore when the harbor is too shallow for the ship.


Our first good look at Stanley, capital of the Falklands.


Window in the Christ Church there.

Arch made of whalebones in the churchyard.


The Church


The Globe Tavern where we had lunch - fish and chips.


In the background, you can see our ship rising above the mountains surrouding the harbor. It is more than 17 stories high. If it were a hotel, it would be the largest hotel in South America.


Sunrise this morning was at 4:52 am. This is the sunset at 9:07 pm. Temperature today was about 50 F.

Tomorrow's sunrise will be 4:42 am and sunset at 9:32 pm. The days get longer as we approach the Antarctic - only one day away!!!!!
