We were unable to tender at Ascension Island on April because the swells were too bad at the tender docking area. It was a bit of a disappointment but not too bad because there really isn't anything on the island. It is a British Territory (same as St. Helena) and is mostly a military post. NASA had a landing strip there for the Apollo program, but it was decommissioned in the early 1990's.
We are now (April 119) in the second of three sea days crossing the Atlantic to Brazil. I'll post more when we have a better connection.
