Sailing the Seven Seas


Sorry for the delay… Things have been busy ‘round these parts. So, about our trip. It’s tough to know where to begin- I suppose the actual traveling part will be as good a topic as any. We left around 6pm and Zoran came to see us off. We waved at him from the still-docked boat for 10 or 15 minutes, then we started moving. Bye, Rijeka!



Our sleeping quarters were hilarious. Sooooo tiny, I can’t believe we didn’t take a picture. Actually, the camera wouldn’t fit. John, Pete, Michelle, and I shared the smaller of the two rooms that first night, and I don’t doubt that all four of us could have easily been touching at once without having to move more than 8 inches. How’s that for team norms? Anyway, it was also insanely hot. Maybe we were really sleeping in the ship's oven…



The trip was 22 hours each way so we had plenty of time for exploring. Here’s Pete inspecting the lines, apparently looking for frayed rope…


















…John got some much-needed hammocking in…




…and Sara almost got sucked into the bowels of the ship.
