Cruising Drake Passage & Cape Horn - Tue 02/04 - Day 32

My wake up call was at 5:45 and it was 45 degrees with 95% humidity.  I dressed and went up for coffee in the Crow's Nest at 6:25 and went outside and took some pictures of Cape Horn for about 10 minutes since the wind was pretty strong.  I went to breakfast at 7.  While I was eating, the fog rolled in and began to obscure the view of the islands.  I went back to the cabin at 8 to download pictures and relax for a while.  I went up at 10 and got the daily crossword and worked it in the cabin.  I went to trivia at 11:45 and this time I got 7 out of 15 correct.  Going through the Beagle Channel, we had the islands of Chile (2 pictures) on the port side of the ship and Argentina (3 pictures) on the starboard side.  I went to the slot tournament at 2 and it turned out that there was a mis-print and that it ended at 2 instead of 3.  We stopped at one of the Chilean islands to allow officials to come aboard to clear us at 2:45.  I went to bingo at 3and won on the first game and split the $60 pot so I paid for my $30 bingo card today.  I read in the cabin until time to get ready for the evening.  I went to the Crow's Nest at 6:30 and talked with Don, Lynn & Sue, Jim & Cathy, Leslie and Twinkle.  We docked in Usuaia, Argentina a little after 7.  After dinner, I went back to the cabin and filled out the room service breakfast request and the Chilean Affidavit Form.  I went to bed at 9:30 as I had a 6:15 wake-up call.
