I took this photo in Puerto Varas. So far it’s the only one I took that day with a comment on the sosauce.com album. When the email notification came through and said “Your photo ‘Walk upright’ has a new comment” I thought “I don’t recognize that caption…” So I looked at the photo again, and [...]

What Mount Osorno looked like this time: What Mount Osorno looked like back in March: Yesterday I took a walk around Punta Arena, the southernmost city in Chile. Man, that is one ugly place to visit! I took a few photos, but it’s hard to find an interesting shot. I may talk more about it [...]

When I was growing up, I didn’t play much sport. I think this is down to having a disabled father who wasn’t able to play football with us kids. More importantly (for this post) we never had a TV in the house, so watching sport was never even an option. The first time I tried [...]

I’m currently working on the Norwegian Sun. I say “working” but, hey, I’m a juggler. It’s not as if you can call that a real job. I spent last Christmas on the Star Princess, and will back down here in South America to work on the Star again in January. The cruise itineraries are similar, [...]
