We now have three full days at sea and expect the weather to get colder as we go further south. Tomorrow we expect icebergs and glaciers.

Puerto Chacabuco
Today we moored at Puerto Chacabuco having had some beautiful views on the way into the fiord.
Our excursion today was inland to the town of Coyhaique, stopping at a national park for a brief walk on the way. The weather was a surprise to us - 27 degrees! Apparently it was a surprise to the guide too. She said it never gets that hot but lately the weather has been odd due to global warming. Apparently the winter just gone was very mild and there had not been any snow in Coyhaique plus so far they have only had ten percent of their normal rainfall.

I suppose this is the Southern Hemisphere's equivalent to Norway and its fjords.......but with a difference! Are you going near the Galapagos(?)and rounding Cape Horn??
