And hopefully there'll be some wildlife shots as well! ~Bernadette Thanks for coming along for the ride. Hope we can get all of that for everyone to see. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jazzbo Posted January 23 #152 Share Posted January 23 Since you’re an early riser, do you take sunrise photos too? I have a couple of really good ones of Mt. Vesuvius from our sail into Naples in October. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have some but not as many. Two places stand out (in my mind), Hawaii and also sailing into Puerto Vallarta one day.

soccermommy Posted January 23 #154 Share Posted January 23 I am following this with great pleasure. Your pictures are stunning. We will be on the Santiago to Buenos Aires sailing in March, and am happy to see the Eclipse is in good shape. How have you found the weather? We will be traveling during the beginning of the South American autumn, abut would love some information on what to expect. Please enjoy your trip and keep sending your great pictures!

Rare jimbo5544 Posted January 23 Author #155 Share Posted January 23 First small complaint. While we know there are other options , for breakfast and lunch we prefer easy and quick. The Ocean View cafe has been getting busier and busier. Yesterday lunch had to look around a lot till we found table. Meh. This morning we went to Blu for breakfast. Went to Ocean Views for linch and looked for a table for 15 minutes before going to the mdr. Here is the gripe. Two larde tables were held by 4 people playing games. There are tons of places. After lunch we got separated and I thought they may had gone back up there (no idea why I thought that). I went back ip there looking for my peeps and two couples still holding table ( restaurant still totally full). One table was clear. Hopping back down off soap box now. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So far weather has been great (cool today). We have talked to several who have done what you are doing. Other than going around the cape, they had little to say. Not as much sea life on that side (we have not seen any). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare jimbo5544 Posted January 23 Author #159 Share Posted January 23 After dinner I went ip on deck hoping for some sunset pics. I did notice the seas had gotten choppy (view and feel). When I got up there, the winds were I guess at 40 knts. Couple of pics. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare jimbo5544 Posted January 24 Author #174 Share Posted January 24 Last night it became pretty windy, as my friend posted in post 164, there is a pretty good site that you can see the winds anywhere (more specifically where you are going to or from). When I zoomed in on this and our proximity in the world, I can understand better what we went through. While the seas were def higher, it was truly the wind that buffeted us around. Assuming is is the norm, when we leave tonite, we will have to go thru this again (and when we go thru Drake’s passage). It will be interesting.

Rare jimbo5544 Posted January 24 Author #175 Share Posted January 24 Temps this morning are a littel warmer than we expected. Have not turned my phone on but I would guess in high 40’s and sun is shining brightly. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
