Tuesday, March 29, 2016 - Making progress

It is late evening and we are slowly making our way to the Beagle Channel and Ushuaia. The Polar Pioneer should be docked around 7 AM. The crossing has been with very calm seas, clear skies and temperatures in the low 50s.

The only travel information that we have received is that we are all on an Argentinian Airlines flight to Buenos Aires that leaves Ushuaia at 1:45 PM and arrives in Buenos Aires at 5:15 PM. Hopefully sometime tomorrow I will find out the arrangements from there to home. I believe that there is an overnight Delta flight from there to Atlanta. I am beyond ready to be home. I hope to be home on Thursday or Friday at the latest.

Today was a day over reading and relaxing. I did spend a fair amount of time outside on the Bridge deck. I finished my fifth book of the trip today. I should have realized but didn't how much of the time we were at sea. Out total miles at sea is approaching 3,500 and at an average of 10-11 miles per hour that is a lot of down time.
