Sunday February 05 2012 Day 31 Punta Arenas, Chile

Let us make one point, that we meet each other with a smile, when it is difficult to smile. Smile at each other, make time for each other in your family – Mother Teresa

Tried to reach each one in our family I think we missed getting ahold of several of you either you were not there or the connection was lost.We have now left  Punta Arenas and are headed out to sea for five days the seas are going to be tough the captain has just asked everyone to tie down everything they can or put everything in areas that will not allow them to fly around or rather fly about, when we came down to Antarctica we hit 34 ft. high waves and the ship that just left last night ( when our captain decided to stay in Punta Arenas over night ), hit waves up to 54 ft. high and had a terrible time of it.Being that we had extra time with the  extra day in port Nancy woke with barely could walk on her right foot she had sprained her ankle so badly. She went to ships doctor and he recommended that she stay off it and put a wrap around it . So you know Nancy she immediately came back an decided we had to go to town and shop for a new pair of shoes as she needed them for a dress she had. Its hard to keep her down. The rest of our day follows with pictures. oh ya as far as resting on her foot  she now can hardly walk on it. that’s our Nancy. WE love and Miss You All. OH YA WHO SAID GIANTS BY 3.

 

Back to the room and a hanging monkey every night a new one. For those who remember sand in you left eye sand in your right GOOD NIGHT LOVE YOU SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO much
