In the meantime we are used to this 24 hour per day
roller coaster. Nico and Letty promised us a comforatble ride and with
this promise in mind we became crew onboard beautiful Nix.
But like many other subjects in life, you can
influence life but threre are moments that there comes an end to this
and that we feel the confrontation with the conditions. But comparede to
the life our grandgrandgrandfathers in the golden age on their way to
Indonesia to collect spices we are very
goldenboys on a ship with all comfort, delicious food, books, a bed! So there is
no reason for any complaints, in the contrary we enjoy every mile we are doing
and each morning we gather round the computer to see if our efforts have paid
of........And after work at deck there is time to read like Butcher's Crossing
of John Williams and reading that book we realize how tough life really can be
and that we are just in all aspects enjoying the sunny side of life. We hope to
see you all soon In St Lucia, we probably are the only ship entering the
harbour with an enlarged crew of seven instead of six as our flying friend
in the meantime has become a reliable crewmember, having its meals in time and
keeping an eye on what we are doing on deck 24 hours per day. We are happy to
intoduce her to you when we are in St Lucia, she seems very interested to get to
know as many sailors as possible!
So see you soon in ST LUcia, Nix crew of
seven.
