Feeling crabby on new years eve in Ushuaia
Ross adds
A day of picking, preparing and purchasing in Ushuaia  - and some found time to eat.
The food here in Ushuaia has been excellent and Rob described the crab as very meaty and not as strong as the Western Australian blue mana from Australind.  It was however a messy experience with great ambience in the small restaurant.  It was sluiced down with a Patagonian Viognier white wine.

We are scheduled to be on board Spirit at 8am with departure soon after.  Customs formalities are complete and we have to leave before noon. 
The forecast is for very light winds and we are advised we will be crossing the Drake Lake (as opposed to Drake Passage), slowly. It will be a new experience after the 50 knots last time.

  1. Robs grandson loves is crab photo, and wants to know how Pop caught it as Austin wants to catch a big crab like this for a pet... He's already named it Colin the colossal.
