I've been around the Horn and now I'm back!

Russell and I just returned from an incredible trip. We went on our first ever cruise from Santiago, Chile to Rio de Janiero, Brazil. It took 16 days and we saw places we would never have seen had we not been on this trip.

We traveled with 13 friends and had a great time. Everyone got along and other than a few days of bad weather, the seas were calm and the sun was shining. Even in the Falklands the weather was unusually nice. Some of our group were disappointed as we rounded the Horn and the sea was like glass.

I am posting this photo only from our trip as we have a blog. This photo represents what I most wanted to see- the far reaches of the world in a surreal landscape....seeing the Chilean fiords and channels made our trip absolutely brilliant and stellar for me. I will never forget those days.

You can go to this blog and read all about our adventures. It truly was a trip of a lifetime.

Last posting on this blog for awhile!

packing,packing,unpacking repacking..............

We are going on a 3 week trip that will take us

through many different climates.

From steamy hot jungles to cold and possibly wet tundra.

From Santiago, Chile to Rio de Janeiro, Brazil.

From parrots to penguins.

Hence the packing issues.

I think ? I have finished this excercise

but we have 3 more days before we leave

if I want to repack ( nooooooooooo) one more time!

From here on out any blogging I will do will be on our

shared blog http://herewecomesa.blogspot.com/

We are taking a cruise with a great group of people-

There are 15 of us characters that will be writing and

posting photos on that blog-so it should be quite

entertaining for all of you.

Adios amigos!
