Views of the South

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.
