Some hame asked why we wanted to go to see land's end at the tip of South America and Antarctica.
We will see some of Antarctica's outer islands. One visitor on a similar itinerary said
that it was like seeing the Florida Keys and thinking one had seen the United States.
However, this is an extremely scenic area.
Here are some links to picture pages from people who have made the trip
on ships small enough that the number of passengers allowed them to go ashore in Zodiac boats:
The Ryndam carries over 1200 passengers, and that is far too many for shore excursions to these fragile islands.
(In most cases, you can click the picture to load a larger version of the picture.)
