Awake in time for lunch

1:22pm CEST Saturday 02 July 2005

I slept from 6:15am to 12 something, totally forgoing breakfast but waking up just in time for lunch. Here on the top deck there are a couple of guys refurbishing things: paint is being chipped off corners and complex surfaces (I guess those are where it collects most during painting and effectively reshapes those surfaces). Another couple guys are redoing the port side steps up to Sunshine Bar, where I am sitting now.

On the port side of the boat is another boat labeled bunkersatsea.com. From my vantage point I have been unable to tell what they do.

I've just been writing for about 2 hours. I'm in the sunshine bar now, about to head back to the internet cafe with my computer so I can use their WiFi and upload all my ramblings.

Still haven't uploaded any pictures yet.

Hmmmm... I have time; I'll make an album now.

4:11pm CEST Saturday 02 July 2005

Okay, I've just put together 97 pictures, which represent all the ports we've been to so far, I think.

To do:

1. upload pictures

2. upload journal entries

3. send Rob Update

4. send two .doc files to Matt

5. (optional) get copy of thumbnail URLs so I can add them to my journal entries. (I can do this later)

4:21pm

I am about to go back to the internet cafe.

I uploaded pictures!

zzzz party

11:48pm CEST Saturday 02 July 2005

We've left LeHavre. In the middle of a party in Carissa and Adriana's room.

4:09am CEST Sunday 03 July 2005

Tonight during departure, we had a wine and cheese party: all the GET teacher got wine and cheese and hung out in Carissa's room for a wine and cheese chow fest. Greg was hilarious with his fake French accent and Brandt wasn't close behind. Natalie sat in my lap for a good while, and I tried to chew on her ears, but to no avail.

The party moved upstairs after departure, during which I had stood with Petra, giving her premium high quality hugs as needed.

Then to Sports Bar, where we all danced and met (some of) the German international exchange students, who are going to be on the boat until Dublin. I met Emily and Kristen. Kristen is from Phoenix, Arizona, but going to school in Germany.
