Our final day at sea on Segment 2. It is therefore going to be leisurely day. I attended a couple of final lectures by the members of the Expedition Team that will be disembarking in Valparaiso. Seven members will be leaving and, at least some, will be replaced with other experts of the region we will be going next. I believe all the Expedition Team members will be leaving the cruise in Sydney.
Sarah arrived in Santiago very early today (around midnight) and checked in to the Mandarin Oriental Hotel Santiago. She will spend the day in Santiago and Saturday, she will be escorted to the ship. I expect to see her in the afternoon.
