Introduction

This blog will track the preparation and progress of a journey from the Antarctic circle near the bottom tip of Argentina to the top of North America via the amazing island of Cuba and many other interesting places along the way such as Uruguay, Chile, Brazil, Paraguay, Panama and the US. Some of the highlights for me will be spending time at Iguazu Falls, experiencing a Boca Juniors football match in Buenos Aires, kayaking with the whales in the Antarctic and attending a screenwriter's conference in Los Angeles!

Kayaking at Paradise Bay



We made four kayaking trips in total on this cruise. On the first one, we met a mother humpback whale with calf as can be seen. We were able to get up really close to them. They were just resting with their blow holes above the water. We went on our way after about 30 minutes to leave them in peace, but they decided to follow us around the bay!


We went kayaking through floating ice as can be seen in the second photo. This was very hard work, especially as it is impossible to stay in sync with your partner when in a twin kayak because of the ice.
We then headed back to our cruise ship as seen in the third photo.
