I am sailing!!

As I write this i am rocking back and forth gently as we sail from sattahip to Bangkok. There are plenty of seasick people but at the moment I am fine. This sailing lark is all very exciting! We had drills once we had set sail and this consisted of lots of guys in firemen uniforms running about the place and the life boats being launched. it was great fun to watch and quite reassuring to see how trained these guys are.

I went through training today for my role in book ex. It sounds so much fun. There motto is 'work hard, play hard'. The people on my shift are a fun bunch of people and the work we get to do is amazing. We get contact with the local people at every port and get to talk to them.

Just a quick reminder that if you want to make a comment please email it to me as i cant actually view my blogspot on the ship.

(As this is the first time I've blogged (or even blobbed) I hope it works!!! And Ruth won't get to see it til next year! hehe! Alison)

Hi Ruth not sure if this will work and I know you won't see it for a year. But it is lovely to hear how you are doing and to keep up to date with your movements. Take care and God bless Auntie Sheila XXX
