THE LIFE AND TIMES OF A LADY SAILOR
Ummm...yes. We're still in port. Although, we did just get the memo to hurry the 'eff up and now, we're working throughout the night to sail in the early morning. As in the kind of morning that's still very dark.
You're right....that box shouldn't look like that.
My pretty purple orchid next to my stability computer, hard hat, and paper work. Just because you asked so nicely!
Muah!
We'll be finishing cargo operations up tomorrow in the evening. IM SO EXCITED TO GET OUT OF THIS PORT!!!!! THIS PORT CALL IS KICKING MY ASS!!!
I'm pooped.
All the sleepiness aside, it's kinda nice to be back at work.
Until I'm out to sea and can sit and talk stories, enjoy a photo of my hydraulic hatch cover levers!
Yesterday's highlights: Picking up a helicopter (we get a few more today)
Watching the longshoreman pick up someone's car with a forklift and move it out of the way
Reading funny labels on boxes - exciter end and non exciter end - if that box was a human I wonder which end would be the exciter end
Gorgeous peach sunrises
My ship picked up a helicopter today. Not even kidding.
...or not. I personally always love a weather delay. A few more days in port? No problem. It's very gloomy out but as of yet, we haven't had to shut down cargo ops.
