Day 12
Sea Day - Chilean Fjords
Last night was bad. I felt like being shuffled to the end of the bed and back while lying down. A sudden drop to the trough of the wave is like a drop on the airplane. I have not experienced that before on a ship. It was bad maybe for a couple of hours and then it was your normal "turbulence".
Being in the inside stateroom, you don't really know the time without a clock and I can reach one from my bed. Having been awake for a little bit and then decided to get up slightly before 10am. Up to the open deck and there is open sea in all directions. We are now in the Pacific Ocean but I hadn't realized we are that far offshore.
Soon enough we were in the Fjords and it was interesting. Pictures cannot do it justice. Someone asked how it compares to the Yangtse River in China. There was no comparison, the Yangtse has this closeness with the terrain around you, much more majestic.
Got someone to take "a picture" of the group. Poor guy took "a picture" using each of the 7 or 8 devices. I lost count.
