RE: Falklands on 12tb Jan11 Jan 2026 21:22
Yes that is my cruise ship, we dock in Stanley tomorrow around 8:30, had a medical evacuation in Antarctica so that delayed docking slightly, but tender ships taking us to Stanley from 9am on 12th. Weather is about 50 degrees F and 25 knots wind max at Stanley. Expecting to see dancing girls and penguins a plenty.
If I get a chance to speak with any locals I will, to gauge their opinions.
GLA I think rockhopper will fund me much more than just this cruise. Antartica is amazing and I suspect this won’t be my last trip to the Falklands. Interestingly in Ushuaia Argentina they have souvenirs in the form of US car plates with the shape of Falklands in Argentina flag colours and Malvinas 1982 written on them, needless to say I didn’t buy any.
