Our last stop was Valpariso, Chile. We got off the ship in the morning, went on a tour of the area, and then over to the big city of Santiago. We boarded our flight at 10:15 pm, flew 10 hours to Atlanta, Georgia, then another 4 hours to Phoenix.
It was a great trip. Thank you to everyone who read my blog. Now that I'm home on my own computer I can see that the videos didn't show very well. And they took tons of time to load! Guess I'll stick with still shots if I ever do this again.
Also, I want to especially thank Papa C.Jay for all of his technical help. Without him, this wouldn't have been possible. What a good guy!
A final thought: When I think about how big the world is, it really doesn't seem very big at all. For us to leave the Falkland Islands and get down to the Antarctica Peninsula in a couple of days seems remarkably fast. But then you see these wide open, isolated, uninhabited places on earth, and the earth seems huge. So there's the paradox in my perception.
Thanks again for being part of my adventure. Grandma Jean
