New Years - 2016 - Day 15

Today we had hoped for warmer weather and the ability to sit out in the sun.  When Ed went up for breakfast it was warmer so he put the towels out; however, the sun didn’t come out like we wanted it to so we never were able to sit out on the deck.

 

We are sailing in the Chilean Fjords so we are not in the ocean and it is very calm.  We are passing by hundreds of small little islands that were formed during the ice age and it is very pretty, but the mountains are so steep that all day we never saw a person or small village on the land.

 

We will publish the video of this part of the trip when we reach Santiago.

 

We went to lunch in AquaSpa again as it is a great place to eat and had grilled tuna with grilled vegetables.  Our tablemates, Mark and Kathy also joined us for lunch.  Then the officers were cooking sausage and sauerkraut so Mark and Ed went down and each got one and they were really good.

 

After lunch we played in the casino and Barb was a little down and Ed had a good session.  We also won $200 in a special drawing that the casino held.

 

After that, we sat out on the deck and watched that islands go by as we traveled up the inside passage way to our next stop.

 

We had a very short nap and then dressed for the evening.  The show was a very good singer and dinner whose menu was produced by the Top Chef program was excellent.

 

Then we went to the casino where Barb won and Ed lost.

 

That’s it for today.  Tomorrow we arrive in our last port, Puerto Montt and we have a private tour arranged which should be fun.

 

Night for now.
