London

Just ten days to go before we leave on our exciting adventure across the South Atlantic from Ushuaia to Cape Town.

Everything has been booked: the car to Heathrow, the BA flights, the hotel in Buenos Aires and, of course, the cruise with Silversea. This is our fourth cruise on the Prince Albert/Silver Explorer.

One last thing to arrange is the authentication of my, or should I say Bob's, satellite phone. On Wednesday I will be able to use the phone for the first time and then will check that I can send and receive messages using the Iridium text messaging service. This is limited to 160 characters which should be enough to enable us to keep in touch without having to make phone calls.
