Comments
Birds are landing on the ship from time to time, but yesterday also a big grasshopper landed and took a rest in the middle of the sea, extraordinary! Captain just caught a yellowfin tuna. Speed and weather are fine and we expect to arrive in Suez on March 27th, planning to go with a convoy through the Suez Channel on the 28th.
