A Saturday at sea

Sailing off the coast of Tunisia, beauitful blue sea and sunny day - a perfect day to be at sea.

If anyone is interested and checked the itinerary, there will be noted a number of sea days - travelling days -no docking, just sailing from one point to the next. So what do we do on these days. After six days at sea and solid tuition from R, I can get myself around the ship, just about. 'Ill see you at breakfast' initially meant I'd find him the next day. But it is sorted now, and the big ship allows for a lot of exploration, many laps of the promenade deck. Today we are in class quite alot. R has discovered a great lecturere on history, especially naval, so they already kindred spirits. I am going to one on Venice, and then one on MArco Polo (born in Venice)Together with reading, doing some emails,and the blog when possible, the time is flying. Which is not what is happeneing in Europe - the news is taken over with the dramas of teh volcanic cloud and huge no fly zone now over Europe, -as of now, all UK air space is closed and getting worse.
We are sailing off Tunisia, enroute to Greece. It is a huge shipping lane - at one tme we noted 13 ships in our sights.
More soon
