Wednesday 13th February – Day at Sea, cruising the Chilean Fjords.

Back into calmer waters (thankfully) after waves of 4 metres last night meant that the ship pitched, rolled and banged all night!

The ship went through “Englishman’s Passage” and into the Straits of Magellan.

We were cold, wet and miserable but the place and scenery were awesome!!

Bit tired today, but as sea was calm - we both slept well!

Thursday 14th February – Day at Sea, Strait of Magellan.

Set the alarm for 7am this morning so that we could see the Brujo Glacier which come right down to the sea.

It was spectacular, but it is still cold and raining…
 
 

Nesta got the jips about sailing around Cape Horn – so not a very romantic valentine’s day!

Diagnosed with ‘cabin fever’ after 4 days on the ship with prospect of 4 more sea days!
