Punta Arenas, Chile - March 14, 2014



For the last day we've been sailing among the hundreds of small islands off the coast of Chile.  The first day we went through the Beagle Channel and saw several glaciers.  The passage was very narrow, so we had closeup views of really spectacular scenery. 





















We arrived in Punta Arenas early this morning.  We had no plans other than to go ashore (by tender) and do a little walking.  Unfortunately, the wind kicked up and the trip ashore was very long and rough.  So we opted instead to stay on board the ship today.  As the day wore on, the weather became worse, and eventually the tender runs were stopped, other than to bring passengers back to the ship. 



 The big project of the day was a haircut for David.

We were quite late in sailing, close to 9:00.  We sailed for Puerto Montt, Chile, by way of the Amalia Glacier.
