January 4, 2023 – Day 1: Ushuaia

Today, we flew from Buenos Aires to Ushuaia. The flight was included with the cruise, but it sure wasn’t a luxury experience I expected from Seaboun, on a rickety old plane with some broken seats and crappy lunch! And they put us in the very back of the plane. It was a window seat, but no window… But we made it to Ushuaia in one piece.

From the Ushuaia airport, we took the provided transport to the port, and since the bus pulled up right next to the ship, I couldn’t get any pictures of the ship, but here are some interior photos and some views from the ship.

We’re now underway and cruising through Beagle Channel. The sea is calm with gentle rocking. Of course, it won’t be like this once we leave the channel.

Tomorrow will be the Drake Passage! Hope it won’t be too bad!
