  • Patagonia, Argentina 🇦🇷

    We went to Tierra Del Fuego National Park in the Patagonia region. It didn’t disappoint! The Andes Mountains and blue skies were the perfect backdrop for exploring and picture taking. This would be the perfect place to spend more time and hike!

    The Pan-American Highway runs up to Prudhoe Bay, Alaska from here! It’s the world’s longest motorable road stretching 48,000 km (close to 30,000 miles)

  • 1/7/2023 Back in Ushuaia 🇦🇷

    What a gorgeous day back in Ushuaia! We are getting ready to disembark and take a tour of Tierra Del Fuego National Park. We will eat lunch at the park and then head to the airport.

    Btw-the Drake was much better than it was when we went to Antarctic. Our crew said that was the “Drake Lake”. I found it interesting because it definitely wasn’t smooth. There were a good number of people who felt sea sick due to a constant roll of the ship. The patch saved me—worked like a charm!

    One note about last evening—our ship’s photographer put together a slide show with pictures he took, as well as those pictures we shared with him. It was amazing and really captured everything we did. He will share the presentation, along with all photos, in a couple of weeks. There were many professional photographers who are passengers on our ship with sophisticated cameras. (FYI there is a photographer on board that films nature and even won an Emmy).

  • Ushuaia – end of the world 🇦🇷🌎
