We will be flying to Santiago Chile, where we are picked up by Oceania Cruise Line and driven to Valpariso where we will board our ship, the Insignia. The Insignia is a relatively small ship, with less then 800 passangers. If you go to this website and click on live views, you can see what is going on from the bridge cam and computer lab cam.

Oceania is an upscale cruise line. Business casual is the standard dress, but they do not have you dress up with suits and ties for dinner or activities. Here is a picture of the pool and track.
Our
stateroom has a veranda. This is a picture of this class of stateroom.The ship has a number of dining rooms, pictured is the grand dining room; they have the Terrace Cafe, which is more casual; Waves Grill/Tapas on the Terace; and two nice small restaurants the Polo Grill and Toscana. The menus are designed by Jaques Pe'pin, so the food is the best we have had at sea.
Of course, after all this great food, we are going to have to spend a lot of time in the exercise room or on the track!!!
