We sailed northward from the Cape of Good Hope for the next 48 hours. The seas were not bad. I 've experience worse on a southern atlantic crossing but I guess the weather is really the determining factor and we had good weather. We pulled into Puerto Madryn which is a small fishing port halfway up the Argentinian Coast. Not much going on here. I am now realizing that S. America is really the third world. It just hasn't made it to the rest of European and N American standards. We walked around and found a local restaurant where we order Steak!
Boy do they butcher meat differently down here. We each were served what looked like 3-4 pound slab of cooked meat. There was no bone, just a huge chunk of fat. After slicing off the meat. It was really delicious and fresh tasting. There was really nothing else to see, so it was back to the ship after lunch. This time we took a leisure walk down the pier. No Tenders.
