Imagine being escorted by dolphins and being so close to penguins that you could touch them. This dream came true for Anne Chalfant when she visited Chile. She got to watch Magellanic penguins on Tucker Islet, among the Chilean fjords. She was on board Via Australis , a four-day cruise at the southernmost tip of the world.
