Sunday morning we awoke to our cruise through the Beagle channel and an area known as Glacier Alley. It was just beautiful and we took a zillion pictures. It was Sunday and I certainly felt close to God with the scenery around us.
We got off the ship around noon into the little port town of Ushuaia, Argentina and visited the Maritime museum which is housed in the building that was once a prison. Very interesting ! Each cell in the rehabbed block contained an exhibit or a prisoner history.
Someone having fun.
Some of the model ships in the museum depicting Magellan’s ships and those that sunk in the trip around the horn.
And then our afternoon was a ship excursion which took us on the Pan American highway to the “End of the World”. Yes Alaska is 17,848 kilometers away or roughly 11,100 miles.

Spectacular view from your balcony, that must be an awesome way to cruise! Great pictures and you are encouraging me to consult a map of S. America as I check your travel progress! 😁
Jools I have been taking a geography lesson on much of this trip too. Falkland Islands today was a history lesson from 1982.
So greetings to you wayyyyyyyy south of where we are! I have to say I can almost hear Steve saying “heeeeeyyyyy Lester, why are you wearing that outfit?” Looks like you are seeing some very cool stuff on the east side of SA. We are just seeing more snow every day...��. Enjoy your last week and we will be waiting to hear all about it ����
