Abandon Ship!

There is a constant throb from the engine. The vessel is remarkably smooth very little roll in fact less than on a train. But the vibrations from the engine can be felt everywhere.




Abandon ship and fire fighting today. I have been allocated my place on the lifeboat!










Saw a pod of whales today.





As we passed Miami mobile reception popped up. Had a lovely conversation with Julia.

Afternoon spent in the ships swimming pool. In reality a small square box full of sea water. Love and warm sitting out in the Floridan sun. Only the odd soot particle from the smokestack to break the moment!

The food is pretty good on the ship. Cookie makes an effort with the limited resources he has at hand.




Time spent generally reading and writing. No internet, no mobile phones, no distractions.
