We met for the first time for 2017 in March to cruise with Reina and John around Cape Horn in South America. Starting in Santiago, Chile, the cruise went south from Valparaiso around the southern tip, then east to the Falklands Island. It finished in Buenos Aires after 14 days smooth sailing through what is often some of the roughest seas in the world. Much of the Chilean side was in the more sheltered but beautiful fiords protected by west Chilean islands. After two days in Buenos Aires our flight back to Santiago went over the spectacular and rugged Andes in lovely sunny weather.
The rest of the session was devoted to planning the remaining four sessions scheduled for 2017. Journeys which have been promised include back-packing land trips in Italy and Canada; 4-wheel driving in outback Australia; Cruising to Antarctic; train in U3A. Lots of happy touring.
