USHUAIA

We're at the end of the world, the southernmost city. We are so far South that when at sea south of Cape Horn, the GPS on the phone wouldn't work properly, it kept saying I was in Alaska. Ush is a really nice town in the foothills of the Andes. The weather has been brilliant, we expected high wind like the 50mph we had at sea the night before, but it is sunny & warm. Why am I lugging all this cold weather gear about? Went on a Spooner Tour around the town ending in a museum that was formerly a recidivist's penal colony. All the bad boys were shipped down Buenos Aires, bit like an Argentinian Botany Bay. Nice place that had art, local history, & Antarctic stuff as well as prison history. That guy we are standing next to is big feet Mexican Pete - you see Linda has the prison uniform on. I didn't think they were going to let her out. Hope nobody gets a cold on board, they may quarantine all the b2b guests in San Diego. That little ship in front of us is our next cruise in October.
