Jan. 24, 2012 – Buenos Aires, Argentina

Karen arrived yesterday, so we attended one of tours in the evening, ‘Dinner and Tango.’ The last one I saw was 10 years ago and wow, has it improved, very professional, good choreography and excellent dancers.

I have various meetings this morning and later on today, a passenger muster before we sail. We have 80+ guests disembarking and over 150 embarking today and then we sail for Montevideo, back down the river Plate and across to its northern coast and the capital of Uruguay. It is all done under pilotage and will take us 12 hours.
