the visit to Cape Horn went well with sunny skies & fairly calm waters and we were able to completely circle the island. It was interesting to see the island at sunset compared to sunrise in 2007. ushuaia was cold but sunny and the stop was way too short for such an interesting location. Today's visit to the Chilean fjords began overcast and alternated between light rain and fog. In the afternoon the sun came up and the wind increased to over 70 kts on our way to Punta Arenas.

Today is John Barron's birthday and some special fun at his expense is planned for the begining of the evening show. Lindsey & Luke will come on board in Sydney and stay for a month.
