• Atlantic Crossing: Day 1

    9 grudnia 2024, North Atlantic Ocean ⋅ 🌬 68 °F

    A colorful sunrise to start the first day of our 6-day crossing … one day less than the usual week-long crossing because we are taking a more northerly route down to Miami.

    By mid-morning, what little bit of sunshine we had was replaced with overcast, gray skies … and the wind picked up. Even with white caps, the sea state wasn’t bad.

    Sea days are my time for guilt-free relaxation. A time to wind down before arriving home to pick up our non-travel routine.

    Speaking of routines, I imagine that the one we established today will be our modus operandi for the remainder of the crossing. That means that the footprints over the next six days will be mostly for way-marking purposes.

    ————————————————————

    I’ll just mention our sea-day routine here … and won’t repeat it in future crossing footprints.

    Have breakfast at the Garden Café with Deniz 👉🏻 Go “our separate ways” … to do as each pleases 👉🏻 Walk the public decks with Mui … timed for when the steward is servicing the cabin 👉🏻 Go “our separate ways” … to do as each pleases. 👉🏻 Have lunch … Mui and Deniz; Mui brings me a light snack to consume in the room or on the veranda 👉🏻 Go “our separate ways” … to do as each pleases 👉🏻 Have dinner with Deniz 👉🏻 Go to the show … Mui and Deniz … staying at least long enough to see if they like the featured entertainment 👉🏻 Bedtime.

    See … nothing exciting!
