because of different scales (200km vs 500km) I tried to visualize the progress with those lines. Would have been great to draw them parallel 😉
After breakfast, I went up to the bridge again. The officer showed me a ship in the same direction on his screen and with the looking glass outside (no good photo available)
The route is controlled by autopilot, influences like wind or bigger waves would be compensated.
The Captain took me to the administration office on G-deck (between F, where my cabin is and the Navigation deck or bridge) where he had installed an email address for me, so that I could write to Marvin and Doron.
I would have liked to write to Lulu, too, but I haven’t written down her email, so I asked Marvin to post something for them on Facebook and they were writing back soon ?
at 11:00, it is my workout time, either “results” or gym, so today again results. I felt a bit better, but the program was different, too, and the cabin is not high enough for real star jacks. Still, they are one of the most exhausting exercises for me, besides flat our burpees and when I have to do 40, I need some breaks in-between. So, today it was: 150 Starjacks, 150, Touchdown lunges, 80 inchworms in 5 rounds.
At lunch, I as always sat on the table with Captain and some officers, all of them Romanians. They apparently were again talking about politics.
At my right side, the officer seems to be especially picky regarding vegetables, but today, only the Captain and I ate the broccoli, all other refused it. I am ok with the food, there is always mixed salad at the table and most of the times, a fruit is the dessert. Only today, it was ice-cream, maybe meant as vanilla, not sure. Anyway, I put a lot of cream and chocolate syrup on it and will go cycling before dinner to compensate at least those calories.
Regarding video cutting, I started with the end of October and went back, because there were less selfie videos to put in and the Gopro clips can be done a bit faster with Magix than with the moviemaker (if that would work properly). I am finished with October except Shiraz, where I want to put all days together, later. Now I must edit ~20 September days, before I get back to those clips that are totally confused by loading, losing, fail-copying and so on.
Maybe I can finish 3-4 videos per day, then I would be up-to-date at the end of the ship trip. It depends on the videos…
Today, at dinner, we were again talking a bit, mainly about car traffic and dogs in Romania. Tomorrow, I will go to upper deck (the lowest deck, but maybe the name is, because it is open all over the ship) and maybe meet an engineer to make another tour, this time with photos.
