Comments:
The Swedish Ship Götheborg is continuing to glide along on the Indian Ocean. Daytime the crew is doing maintenance work, taking part in various training and listening to lectures. With rotating watches there is also off-duty time, to be utilized for reading, card-playing and music-playing. For some strange reason there is a great number of recorders (and flute-players to be) on board, and so the background sound sometimes make one think of a day nursery. The heat is countered with a firehose, with sea water, being mounted on deck as a shower. A much appreciated initiative!
