Getting to Togo.. slowly but surely!

Hello blog readers!

Today we are still at sea. We have about four more days until we arrive in Togo and I am very ready to be there! Initially the sail was really rocky, almost to the point where it was just funny. I was on the internet a couple nights ago, facebook chatting with a friend, whilst my computer keyboard and the chair I was sitting on swayed back and forth.. haha.

Well, now things are much calmer and the sail is actually quite peaceful. The work load for hospitality (which is the department I work in) is really light during the sail, so I've had a lot of relaxation time, spending time with friends, reading, getting to know the ship better, etc. When we get to Togo the work load is supposed to really pick up, which I am excited and also nervous for!

Here are some pictures that I've taken over the past week and a half:


Beginning with the airplane flight to Tenerife:




Here is the town, Santa Cruz, it was about a 20 minute walk from the ship in Tenerife and we had to walk about a mile down the shipping dock to get there:




Some friends and I went to a city up further in the hills of Tenerife called La Laguna:



Leaving Tenerife for the big sail:


Some pictures of the beautiful atlantic:


Me and two other girls in hospitality made cards for random people on the ship and we delivered them with bags on our heads to be "anonymous"




Here are some of my roommates about to watch a movie- my bed is the top bunk!





Ok, well that's enough for now! Hope to keep you posted more often!


Love,

Caitlin

  1. I'm not seeing the pictures... you might need to put them in there again, but maybe it's just me.
