Midsummer around zero degrees
Yeah, that is the deal for me this year. We just arrived to snowy Puerto Natales from Puerto Montt on a 3-day ferry ride. It was an experience indeed.. The sea-stomach trained by the Finnish marines and numerous adventures around Tallinn and Stockholm boats was given a ride for the money on the less gentle waves of the Pacific. Let us just say that the movie Perfect Storm was made reality in front of my eyes with some 30-foot waves rocking the boat.. I did do better than Johanna who had to really fight it, but all in all my respect for the crazy dudes sailing the Magellan strait and up the Chilean coast hundreds of years ago just went up a couple hundred percent or so. Here are some happy sailors before the open seas (it was not actually even a storm..) and the Navimag "cruiser":
Have a nice Juhannus y'all, I know we will be enjoying it hiking in one of the most famous national parks in Chile, the Torres del Paine, before heading even further south. Keeping the fingers crossed that our "winter" clothes can keep us warm once we hit the end of the world..
