Our captain is of Greece heritage. He has a wonderful sense of humor...he just said “ As my grandfather always told me ‘ Leo, keep smiling, as long as you have teeth!’” His other words today told us that if we dug a hole through the earth, we would be in Mongolia!
Today we will have a ceremony involving the 500th year of Magellan’s first voyage. A representative of Portugal is on board to formally receive the Portuguese flag we flew as we went around the Horn. We are the last ship this season to do that.
