San Antonio Chile

We are docked at the port of San Antonio, Chile. We arrived at the airport in Santiago on Monday morning after a 10 hour flight from Toronto.  We emerged into sunny, 28 C (82 F) weather.  We are travelling on the Island Princess, a smaller boat which has just come from Fort Lauderdale, through the Panama Canal, and to Easter Island.  It was expected that we would depart Monday at 6:00 p.m. travelling south along the Chilean coast.  It is now noon on Tuesday, February 4th.  The port is closed because of high swells and big waves.  Well, if you have to be stranded, being on a cruise ship with lots of food and drink and beautiful sunny weather is not a bad place to be.
