Day 59 - Sea Day - Whatever

Sea days are always welcome especially after lengthy excursions. Besides sleeping in there is time to unwind and recharge for the next 'whatever'.

We were on deck twelve as Serenade left Puerto Quetzal. Bow and stern thrust pods were kicking up silt as our floating resort maneuvered towards the Pacific. After two months it has become routine, but still enjoying to behold.

The Captain's evening status was on schedule like always. It is his version of the evening news filled with navigational information, weather reports and other miscellaneous 'whatevers'. There was something about changing course and the decks being closed for the evening, but like leaving port, these announcements had become routine and automatically ignored.

I slept through the night and obviously missed the latest 'whatever'. That night we had experienced hurricane force winds and high seas. The decks were again open with everything gritty to the touch from dried salt spray. From our plotted route we can see Captain stayed closer to shore protecting us from the strong east winds and large waves. My only surprise is the onboard 'influencers' didn't have us sinking again. Whatever.
