We had a quiet, pleasant day at sea today. I started the day, as I usually do, with a trip to the gym. John did the same later in the day. After that, we mostly stayed in our cabin or spent some time in one of the lounges just watching the world go by. We went through the area today known as the Chilean Fjords. I am not sure that they were true fjords as those are carved by glaciers and generally are lateral to the shore. Instead, we seemed to go through channels in between islands and the mainland. Yet there is no doubt that glaciers shaped this landscape.
It’s a bleak but beautiful landscape.
Just sitting on my little balcony, wrapped up in a couple layers of blankets, watching these silent giant masses of granite was extraordinarily peaceful.
In the evening, we splurged for a special meal. While the Lyft driver we had on our way to the airport raved over the food on Norwegian, we have found it only tolerable at best. That may be by accident as they have a series of small restaurants that cost extra money. Not surprisingly, the food is also generally much better. We went to their version of Benihana tonight. It was the usual schtick with the joke-cracking chef. But it was still fun and the food was pretty good.
But now it’s time to go to bed.
