We were still at sea while the sun rose over the Atlantic Ocean. The ship arrived in Lisbon, Portugal a bit after noon. As this was still a class day, we were not allowed off the ship after we docked. There were some amazing clouds over Lisbon that afternoon and evening. Individual images can be viewed here.

There is something special about the clouds in Patagonia. The wind coming over the mountains forms the lenticular clouds with their unique shapes. Also the sun coming over the mountains lights up the clouds with sometimes intense and unique colors.
