Comments
Sea-sickness situation considerably better. Sea much calmer. Another barracuda was caught and cooked by the chefs yesterday afternoon. It is a delicay, according to our Eyptian friends on board. They say this was a real Red Sea barracuda. They are bigger and taste better than the barracudas normally sold in Egypt. From time to time we see big ships in this densely trafficated sea lane between Europe and Asia.
