Farewell to guests & arrival in Ushuaia

Yesterday was a sea day as we cross the Drake Passage towards Ushuaia. There was quite a bit of motion of the ocean and I thought it best that I rest and catch up with myself a bit. Paul has been catching up on sleep from his night shifts so I had a bit of sleepy company.

Today the sea was calmer. Paul caught up on more sleep and I caught up a bit on my blog.

Around 5pm there was a farewell reception for guests, and a final staff 'goodbye'. They all came out in full force to say goodbye, after which a video of the journey was played. The camera team had captured things beautifully and so well.

The Pursuit arrived in Ushuaia ahead of schedule. We were supposed to dock tomorrow morning but sea conditions were our favour and, as there was a berth available for the ship, we arrived around 6pm, and that meant guests and crew could go ashore for dinner or hit the bars.

We will stay overnight here and in the morning guests will disembark and head home.

Our next journey to Antarctica will begin tomorrow evening.Meer informatie
