We are really enjoying this cruise. There are many very nice people and we have been fortunate in meeting a great many of them. We have an entertaining dinner table ensemble and are surprised by how many Albertans and Canadians are on board for the full 35 days. As everyone knows, Canadians like value for our money!
Our entertainers are total unknowns to us but many are excellent and make a living on the cruise ship circuit. They come from Australia, UK, Europe, USA etc. and we have missed very few evening performances.
We must confess - we have yet to see the midnight sky! What is it about heading south of the equator that exhausts us by 9 pm?
We must admit that our knowledge of geography was abysmal!! Do look up a proper map of Chile and take a good look at the southern tip. We have been sailing through some very complicated scenery - fjiords, islands, narrow channels that are all part of Chile.
By the way, Punta Arenas is somewhat further south (they claim) than Ushuaia, Argentina where we are headed next and which everyone assums is the most southerly city in South America.
