Day 34: At sea
02/08/19 22:00 Getting back
We sleep in. With an inside cabin you do not have any reference to daylight anyway and the smartphone is at the other end of the cabin.I wake up at 8 in the morning (have a look at the phone) and sleep again before we get up at 11 o'clock CEST.
We go on deck and have breakfast. The sun tries to get through the clouds and it is 20° Celsius.
The overall appearance of a breakfast on board is very important: shades of yellow and brown interact beautifully with each other!
The leaf of bread we brought with us got moldy and we stick to a marble cake we bought somewhere in Iceland which now is now kind of marble cake crumbles. I get a coffee at the bar.
Some of our fellow travellers already stick to something more nutritious from the duty free shop
The sun comes out and in the more sheltered areas you could sit in a shirt.
We pass by the Shetland Islands after noon.
The Shetlands
Lars eats a hot dog, I get another coffee.
The chairs right next to us are being blocked by Germans by leaving their stuff on it. They have been away for hours. You can travel long distances, but you will not lose your behaviour patterns.
I's time to play Bingo on board, which we skip. Lars watches "Men in Black: International" in the movie theatre.
We try the Pizza for dinner this time. Yesterday's burger has not been a success. The pizza looks good at first sight. They put lots of cheese on it. Lots! Really! About 8 mm of cheese! We cannot finish the pizzas, it's just too much. One pizza for both of us would have been enough.
We buy a can of beer and a soft drink and sit on the deck in the sun at 23° celsius. On the horizon we can see an oil drilling platform.
