We sailed for the Beagle Channel at midnight on our way to Ushuaia in Argentina. We would have a day of cruising the Beagle Channel. The morning brought some dramatic views – the above and the one below were taken from our balcony. We didn’t have any idea what the day would bring for our […]
Venice airport as we approached our gate As we exited the customs area in Venice I expected to see the promised ‘meet & greet’ person. I’d booked a water taxi to our hotel, via our hotel. The available area of the arrival hall was checked to make sure that we were not in the wrong place – […]

Approaching the entrance of the first fjord that we visited – Dusky Sound – at 8.15 am. The following few hours saw us cruising through Breaksea Sound and Doubtful Sound.
