299 Ship 01 15.5.2019

The night was loud and rumbling, because they emptied the space in front of me completely and filled it with other containers, but it was not too bad for me.

At breakfast, I could take crêpes with Nutella and only a bad muesli without oats was available and no full grain bread, what I had hoped to get for a healthy diet, but still there is a lot of salad at noon and for dinner, so it will be good.
I read about Nutella and there was one argument that you can think about: you cannot tell for sure that the palm oil they use, is not causing overexploitation, although they have a certificate that the WWF accepts. But for sure they would need at least 3x more space for growing alternative oils and then the problem could be even bigger. I wrote an email to the producing company, Ferrero, and suggest going a step ahead and use organic ingredients, so not only I, but many customers would feel better to buy that spread. Maybe, they were waiting for my letter and will change this soon!
In the morning, I wanted to do a Feldenkrais lesson, but was 2x interrupted by a guy who wanted to have my documents. I stopped it, and avoided to be interrupted two more times, because he wanted to have my passport again for a copy. But he gave it back to me, so maybe I will take the chance to leave the ship in Fremantle for a short round there (and buying oat flakes?!)
Today, I only cut two videos, because the first one was longer, and I tried to download new music from youtube. I also wasted some time by listening hit-music of the 70ties-90ties, because in the stadium in Sydney they had played a song that I had heard before but didn’t know the name of it or the band and I want to use it for the next open air concert in my school. I heard a lot of songs from Toto, Yes, Foreigners and all those bands suspicious for me, but didn’t find that song.
At dinner, the captain invited me to the bridge when we would leave. I had seen a woman on board yesterday and now it was clear that she is the wife of the captain, because she sat beside him and they were not talking like colleagues. The pilot came at 18:30 and the ship left the port. From time to time he said a number or something like for instance “midship”, and in the same second, 3 crewmembers repeated that one after the other as a confirmation.

The tug-boats stayed with us for a while after pulling the ship about 10m from the harbour wall. And then, the pilot also left us. I wrote a last message to M&M before my phone lost the connection and sat down for finishing the second video. But because of the vibrations of the ship, caused by the engine, the screen began to shiver. I hope this problem will not become more serious and I can finish some videos. If I can complete 3 of them every day, I would have done all the videos until leaving Sydney, and only if I film too much on board, I will again built up a delay. But there are not too many new things for filming, so I will see!
