Thursday, 10/17. Rain off and on in the morning. Used the waterproof pants I bought at home and the raincoat I bought in Argentina. Boated to the mouth of a glacier. Hiked to a lookout spot. More nature talks. Too much chitchat for me, but because I’ve become more familiar with the others, I found it less irritating. More hot chocolate and scotch.
After lunch the captain brought the ship to within a few hundred yards of another glacier. A lot of calving. Very, very blue. Great time. Visited the bridge. Took a picture of the captain, who in turn insisted that I sit in the captain’s chair while he took the picture.
Getting a bit of a cold, so I’ve cut back on alcohol consumption.
The views continues to amaze. Saw one handmade sailboat and one rock with graffiti. Otherwise, no sign of humanity.
