The cruise to Antarctica was amazing.  But like all cruises, you must return to land.  The  most amazing stop was at Palmer Station and of course, running a 5K in Antarctica was a once in a life experience (if you missed those postings).

Back from the snow and ice to the port of Ushuaia…on to the sun and beaches of eastern South America…

I am not sure if the sun ever shines here though!

It is actually a fun place to visit with some amazing lamb BBQ.

Walking around town has a lot of history which is very different than Norway.  If interested in seeing where you leave for the Arctic Circle, follow this blog posting a few years later.

It was a great experience travelling on Le Boreal, for a more detailed review of the ship, check out this posting.
