The Last Continent

25 Dec

Florence and I are leaving today for Buenos Aires and then flying to Ushuaia, the southern most city on the planet, where we board the cruise ship to Antarctica.  We will then have visited all seven continents.  The itinerary is posted here, https://www.gct.com/trips/small-ship-cruise-tours/antarctica/antarcticas-white-wilderness/2017/itineraries

Florence will be posting photos on her FB page.

Merry Christmas, Happy New Year.
