New Year in Florida 🌅 Sea swims, sunset swims, town wanderings, brewery visits, and a lovely New Year party. So good catching up with friends and family, and especially meaningful as we look ahead to our families coming together when Hamish & Hayley get married. Special times getting to know Bev & Steve Cornish better 🤍

Two days in Buenos Aires 🇦🇷 — our final port of call after our 5 week cruise

Day 1: Hop-on hop-off through the city’s icons — cruising past Plaza de Mayo, the Casa Rosada, Teatro Colón, and the grand avenues of Recoleta. A stop in La Boca, where Caminito’s colourful streets, tango beats and football passion bring the city to life 💃🎨
Then to Recoleta Cemetery, resting place of Eva Perón — Argentina’s most iconic First Lady, loved by the people and forever part of the nation’s story. Nearby, a proud Irish connection at the tomb of Father Anthony Fahy, the Irish-born priest who became a champion of Irish immigrants in Argentina in the 1800s 🇮🇪

Day 2: Out to the countryside for true Argentine tradition — a ranch visit with gauchos on horseback, incredible folk dancing, and finishing with an unforgettable Argentinian asado 🥩🔥

Buenos Aires — history, colour, culture and connection.

A Day in Montevideo 🇺🇾

We started our day with a stroll through Constitution Square and took in the beauty of Teatro Solís before jumping on the Hop On Hop Off bus — such a great way to cover the city when you only have a day (24-hour tickets $25 USD per person 

From the bus we caught views of the Rambla waterfront, Plaza Independencia, leafy parks, historic neighborhoods and more . We hopped off for a walk and coffee in a lovely park before hopping back on to explore the market for beers & food.

Perfect way to see the best of Montevideo before heading back to the ship and on to our next adventure!

Wishing all our family friends and followers a very Happy Christmas.
We are spending the festive season with our son in Georgia USA. It does feel strange having the sun at Christmas 😄

Pic from a formal night on the ship - sunny Georgia pics coming soon!

A Day in the Falkland Islands
Arriving in Port Stanley by cruise ship, we took a private car out to Fitzroy to visit the Welsh Memorial, honouring those who lost their lives aboard Sir Galahad in 1982 during the Falklands Conflict — a quiet, moving reminder of the islands’ recent history.

Next stop: Gypsy Cove, where Magellanic penguins waddle in and out of the water 🐧

Back in Port Stanley for a wander — colourful cottages, windswept streets, and somehow we blended in so well we were mistaken for locals at the pub… clearly the Falklands suits us 🍻

A few Falklands facts:
• Over 740 islands, but fewer than 4,000 residents
• British Overseas Territory since 1833
• Wildlife outnumbers people by a lot
• No McDonald’s — but plenty of character

A remote, resilient place where history, nature, and warm island life meet.
