    Left Port Goa

    Left Port Goa
    Just left the port of Goa.At sea now. Feel a little sea sick, also a little homesick. At night i can hear all 45 of my party cry from being away from their families. The men are already complaining about the sleeping arrangments. This is gonna be a long one...

    Day at Sea #1

    We have just departed from Italy. There is a soothing tide over the ocean. A small breeze, with a chill down my spine. The men excited for the long journey that waits for them. I tell them to take precausions on bad storms, sicknesses, and helping around the ship.

    Port Colombo

    Port Colombo
    After a week of being docked in Colombo, we decide to leave. As we leave the port, i hear one of the men making a struggling voice. Turns out he has been ill. Nothing major but i must warn the men for precausions. So we gather up on the deck and give them the news right as the sun goes down.

    We are docked at port Yanam.So the men are healed now. Every morning at Sunrise there is always animals out showing them self's off. Whales and Dolphins mostly. If your luck you migh see a shark. This was the great part of being docked here. Other good things where there was a town and in the middle of town there is market full of interesting things like, fine china art and spices.

    Home, sweat home!

    Home, sweat home!
    After this one month voyage, we have decide to head back home. The smiles on the men's faces when i announced it was remarkable. I would love to have a feast when we get back with all our families. As we draw near to a end we celebrate together with dancing, eating, and playing games. I had a wonderful time with my men. As we head back to the port of Goa, the men quietly wispering in their dreams.
