Calm Seas

Today, the sea has been calm all day. I was on morning shift for my class, which left the rest of the day for doing other stuff. After lunch, we managed to bag ourselves a seat in the garden area at the very back of the ship (which is extremely popular, and it can be very difficult to find a space most of the time).

Other than a minor accident, when one lady fell over and badly injured her leg, resulting in her being whisked away on a wheelchair, the afternoon passed without incident (I say ‘minor’ – actually, it seemed rather serious; there did seem to be a large amount of blood). The seas have been calm and the sun has been shining. With hardly any wind, it’s also meant that it has been quite hot out on deck, but with only a few more days of the cruise left, most people seem to be trying to take as much advantage of the weather as possible before returning to cooler climes.
