• Sea Day - Ushuaia Argentina

    February 27, South Pacific Ocean ⋅ 🌬 46 °F

    Today we were at sea again on our way back to Ushuaia. The guests that were only touring Antarctica will be leaving in the morning. We will be staying for the rest of our tour through South America.
    In the morning the science team presented all the results from the experiments they conducted. Then we had a tour of the hangar where all the 'toys' are kept. The Special Operations Boats ($1M each x 2), the submarines ($5M each x2) and all the Zodiac boats and 2 man kayaks were all nearly stowed away. All the equipment is built for military use.
    We arrived at port around 8pm, got off the boat as soon as we could. Spent about 2 hours walking around the town. For the required magnet, coffee cup and also a Mate Tea gourd cup and socks. Stopped for a quick cerveza at Patagonia Brewing.
