Lighthouse at the end of the world

We made it!
Wind force 7 gusting to 50 knots but in the lee of Cape Horn island it was calm enough to launch the zodiacs and get ashore.
Difficult to stand up in the gusts up here by the lighthouse. The building to the right is the three bedroom bungalow occupied by the lighthouse keeper with his wife and three kids. No seriously! He (and they) do a one year stretch with no holidays!!!!! They do have telephone, internet and tv and regular visits by the Chilean navy and cruise ships.
