We arose early again and headed up,to.15 to watch and have breakfast. Unfortunately we picked the wrong side to sit on. The decision about going around was not made until the last minute, but we did circle the horn. The water was pretty rough going around the Horn but not as bad as I had expected. At one point they did close the outside decks do to wind and spray. There is a naval,station there where a family lives. Can't imagine being that isolated, especially with children.

It was sort of cool to be that far south. It took about 2 hours for us to circle and then we were out headed north toward the Falkland islands. We are due to tender there tomorrow. So we shall see.

The afternoon has turned out to be sunny and calm. First sunny day we have seen in a while. Looking forward to a little warmer temperatures as we head north up,the Atlantic.

Once you reach platinum with the cruise line they offer you free appetizer and reduced price drinks every night. So we are headed to the bar for drinks before dinner
