Day 41 - Sea Day - Glacier Hunt

-

When Punta Arenas' port closed, Captain turned the Ship around and began executing plan B. We headed into the fjords seeking shelter and glaciers. Despite the misty cold weather, the scenery was breathtaking. After six hours the Captain announced we had arrived. Alberto de Agostini National Park was worth the trip.
