Days 73+74

The ship is alongside the dock, called the FIPASS. It was originally built by the military as a temporary dock 30 years ago, it is a series of barges connected together. The dock is only big enough for a couple of ships at a time.

Had a nice wee walk around the town of Stanley.  Its a really interesting and beautiful place with lots of history. There are a few wrecks visible in the harbour, the best preserved being the Lady Elizabeth, a late 1800s tallship.

We’ve been moved off the FIPASS for a day while a small expedition cruise ship goes alongside to take on fuel and other supplies.
