Last Sunday at Sea in the Med

We had our last Sunday at Sea in the Mediterranean today and the day was
fantastic. It was sunny and warm all day. With no work until the
evening, I was able to sleep late with no disturbance. Since the cadets
were off all day (except for those with watch), there was no noise.

By the time I got up and out the barbecue had started on the sun deck.
Burgers and hotdogs for breakfast again. After breakfast (lunch?) it was
a day for reading and relaxing in the warm Mediterranean sun. Almost
everyone had a very restful day. Most of the cadets worked on their sun
tans instead of their studies today. After dinner of steak, potatoes and
corn-on-the-cob, I finally reported for work at 18:00, mostly to show the
evening's movies. A few dedicated cadets showed up to do work, but the
attendance in the library was light.

Next Sunday we'll be in Brest and the next, and last, Sunday at Sea we
will be in the mid-Atlantic on the way home.

Adieu to the Mediterranean, it was beautiful.
