Here we are, ready to leave our Chilean battlecruiser in a small wooden boat for a closeup of some Patagonian glaciers. En route, we bumped into and crunched over many tiny icebergs but didn’t tip over.
Still, these lifejackets were of great use as extra raincoats.
Lots of adventures on our battleship voyage up and down to Tierra del Fuego, but no Internet access. We saw blue glaciers up close, touched a blue iceberg, met glaciologists, learned how to date ice cores, and slept for four nights in narrow Navy-ship bunk beds.
Now we’re in Miami airport, on our way home. More photos on Flickr!
