Last day with “open ship". The longed-for container with equipment from Sweden finally arrived yesterday evening. It has been emptied today and its contents stowed everywhere. When most of it was on board, then arrived a few tons of provisions. Once again we organized to have it aboard going from hand to hand and then there was more stowing. It is always a busy time before departure, but it is a good thing that today´s VIP activities are limited to a few small groups to be guided around, so maybe one can hit the bunk in time. Tomorrow there will be no visitors, just making the Swedish Ship Götheborg ready to put to sea.
