31.1.11 Cape Horn and the Beagle Channel
Just a quick one to say that whilst I was downloading the Falklands Blog we started to approach Cape Horn, we have how just passed through safely and are in the Beagle Channel. It was very exciting and very very windy however we watched a film of Irving Johnston in 1929 on a square rigger. and we had a very easy time.
We are heading for Port Williams to clear customs and then we will land in Ushuaia in Argentina at about 2.00am. It was comparatively calm with a force 11 wind and so here are a few pictures. For us it’s just gone 6.00pm David has heard the news of the Liverpool and Newcastle transfers and is desperate for a proper English paper to get the full details.
Tomorrow we go to the Tierra del Fuego the land of fire.
