We toured the Ushuaia Jail and Maritime museum. We saw that Carlos Gardel, the man who invented the Tango, spent time in the prison here. We saw paintings and drawings of Edward A. Wilson, a doctor who had been on trips with Scott and Shackelton to Antarctica. He was the great uncle of David Wilson, our ship historian and David had good stories about Edward Wilson. We tried also to go to the Yamana Indian museum but, we suppose that because the Yamana no longer exist, there was no one there to open the museum. We flew to Santiago in the mid day and many people terrorized the new arrivals to the Antarctica voyage by telling them that the trip was rough and they would be sea sick. Nice change, Antarctica cold to 30 degree celcius on the same day.
