Landings have gone well. The expedition team is very good. Waitstaff are eager to please, with great personalities. We have 67 guests onboard and even at full capacity of 100 people I do not think the ship would be crowded. I really do like this ship, super comfortable.

Today we started with a zodiac ride and hugged the rock cliff looking at the birds nesting on the rocks. We saw two fur seals ( actually sea lions) coming down off the rocks to reach the water. Amazing how they managed to make their way down this rugged rock face. There were large schools of fish swimming around the zodiac. We ended up with a walk on shore. Saw land iguanas, lots of birds with small chicks. One juvenile blue footed booby kept coming closer and closer. Ended up right next to my shoe. Naturally curious it is amazing how unconcerned the animals are to humans. The sea lions are completely comfortable with us walking around. None of the charging seals like you see in Antarctica.

Tonight we have our KLT cocktail party outside on the deck at the rear of the boat. This outside public area is very protected from rain and wind as the majority of the deck area is glassed in on the sides and spacious with just the front open to the elements. Should be very nice.
