We had moderate seas all the way which were about 3 meters, the winds were across the ship which meant there was quite a bit of movement. We were okay but now having been on land now it's a little difficult finding land legs, everything is moving
During our sea days we had the usual crossing of the equator and the usual "Pollywogs" being sentenced to all types of crime, like being cut up ( they made up imaginary blood, intestines, which you may be able to see in the photos) as well as having to kiss a smelly fish and then being thrown into the pool. Even the captain was thrown in. good fun.
They also had a competition for the building of model boats, some of the guests were very clever and made a few boats. the winner was decided by the Captain and the chief engineer.
So we have made our inaugural crossing which was an experience, at stages the depth of the ocean was almost 6 kilometres, a long way to the bottom. We survived, no sea sickness at all.
