Another Day ~ July 07

Saturday the 21st was my halfway point for being with American Cruise Lines. Six more weeks left to go. I can't believe I'm going to make it. I'm so excited to be done simple to move on to the next thing in life. I've been talking with Captain Stan and Sharron and am so excited to say that I will be sailing on M/V Hope with Friend Ships for the next trip to the islands of St. Kitts & Nevis, located in the Leeward Islands, the island Roatan and also Honduras .. I really am looking forward to it!

Things here in Maine have been going pretty well. I got a complement the other day from the Mate that I was the best deckhand he had ever seen, I was so happy!
The "#1 Deckhand"/ERA (Engine Room Assistant) is leaving in two weeks and there is talk that I will be the new one. I'm excited and kind of nervous. We don't sail with an engineer so there is just the ERA... Now they want a chick to be starting the engines and all that jazz.. And I say all that jazz because I really don't know much about the engine room. Yikes! How do I get myself into these situations?

Beautiful Maine and the salty sea.
