Where Is Safarigal?

Punta Arenas, Chile March 13th, 2024 Much to my dismay, my eye is still not back to normal. It is healing, and I don’t think a visit to the medical center is necessary, but it is still very frustrating. I hate it when there are distractions when I am on holiday. We...

Ushuaia, Argentina March 12th. 2024 My hair remains the same, but my eye seems to be on the mend. I am soaking my eye, and resisting taking my nail scissors to my hair to even it up, mindful that I will make things worse. We woke up to the beauty of Ushuaia. It is...

Cruising Cape Horn March  11th 2024  The weather had deteriorated overnight, and the ship was pitching and rolling again. We had been looking forward to our scenic cruising around Cape Horn today. This is our third cruise to this part of the world, but on the...

Stanley, Falklands Islands March 10th, 2024 We had an extremely rough and bumpy night, and I did not think that things were looking good for the tenders ashore. 25 minutes trying to get to the dock in rough seas didn’t seem to be on the cards. But suddenly, the...

At Sea March 9th, 2024 I was still disappointed about the penguins, but hopefully we will see them tomorrow. We really haven’t found the perfect lounge to sit in during the day, but Skywalkers night club works out well. I love the décor. Even the carpet and ceiling...

Puerto Madryn, Argentina March 8th, 2024 Penguins today! We decided to take the ship’s tour to the Valdes peninsular. Not only would we get to see penguins, but there are also sea lions and elephant seals, so it had the promise of a good day of wild life viewing,...

At Sea March 7th, 2024 Finally a sea day! The first order of business was to find the launderette, or laundromat as it is called on this ship. Luckily there is one on the same deck as our cabin, but it is right at the back of the ship. I trundled down there with my...

Montevideo, Uruguay March 6th, 2024 Uruguay today. A whole new country for us. Very exciting. We had booked a private tour, and as soon as the ship had docked and it was safe to go ashore, we headed down the gangway onto the pier. There is no cruise terminal, and...

Buenos Aires March 5th, 2024 We woke up to see the MSC Lyrica outside our window. When we had looked outside during the evening, a container ship was being loaded. She must have slipped away quietly during the night and her bright white replacement had arrived. So...

Well, it has been over a month since we disembarked the Balmoral in Southampton, so now it is time to pack those suitcases again! Back in 2017 I completed the Princess Academy travel advisor training program, and in recognition of me knowing all things Princess, I...
