24/02: Cape Horn

Posted by: The Agnew Family
Ed was up and on deck by 7am ---- third early morning in a row, that might be a record. This morning we are seeing Cape Horn. The cruise ships don't sail around Cape Horn. They sail through the Beagle Channel then back track to Cape Horn, sail past it then turn around and head for the next destination, which in our case is the Falklands Islands. Some ships do stop at Cape Horn as we saw a ship anchored off and people were walking around on the island. Anyone who knows Ed knows he had his GPS out --- the GPS indicated that we reached a latitude of S 56.025 degrees.
It's hard to see but this is a cut out of a Condor.
