      Falkland Islands, we will not come.

      January 28, 2020 in Falkland Islands ⋅ 🌧 52 °F

      We got up at 6:30 AM. The weather forecast for today was light drizzle all day. Our ship was already near islands. There was another huge ship nearby. All looked good. We went to eat breakfast and then I got in line for tender tickets and Boris went to our cabin to get ready. In about 20 minutes he came to change me so I could get ready. At that time captain announced that the wind is 35-40 miles per hour and he does not suggest for people with physical challenges to go ashore.
      I went to our cabin and in about 15 minutes Boris came back with tender tickets. The tender boats were lowered in the water and everything looked good.
      We were dressed and ready to go. At that time captain announced the whole thing is aborted. The other ship had already 200 people on the island. The condition is not safe.
      The other ship returned all passengers back to ship and left by 9:00 AM. Our ship lifted all tender boats and left right after.
      Goodbye Falklands.
