Empire State of Mind.. Hello New York!! :D

April 15, 2010

I haven’t blogged in awhile. So far it’s been pretty tiring and thank God we’ve left Brazil already. We did nothing but clean and sanitize the whole kitchen during our stay. Now we’re on the Devil’s Island in the French Guinea. They said this used to be a prison of some sort. Like an old school Alcatraz. I think I’ll pass on this and it’s raining out so I guess I’ll just view this from the deck.

So what else is there? We’ll be in the Caribbean in a few days and Florida in a week. For sure I’m going around Barbados, Tortola and Half Moon Cay. I can’t wait to get to the states. After Florida we’ll be heading to New York. Thank God.. At least it’s somewhere familiar and people can actually understand what I’m saying there. I’ll get less home sick. Yes, I’m still a bit home sick but not as much compared to before. It was really bad back then.

One month down.. Nine to go….. This is going to be one long year. It better be worth it..

So, tomorrow is another day at sea. This means I don’t really have to wake up too early and that is always a good thing. On other things, I never got to mention how cheap the alcohol is here on board. Corona’s are only a buck a piece, a shot of whiskey either Jack or Jim is a buck fifty and all the others are two bucks and cheap alcohol is most definitely a good thing. Cigarettes though are pretty tight. Its three fifty a pack. Not a good thing.. I’m minimizing on smokes actually because of this.

So what else is there? Same, same but different..

Getting used to the life on sea.. good job. but still would like to work on land. it's already April. I have a long long way to go.

To the Girl: I Miss You too.. Thank you for the Messages.. :)

I'm hitting the Amazon in a few days.. And it's the first day of April. Nice.. one month down. Nine to go..
