Monday, April 10th - Sea day

We are cruising up the Red Sea. We had a late sail away yesterday as we waited for a delivery of blueberries, strawberries, and toilet paper. The pilot came screeching up to the boat and once he was on they pulled up the gangway and off we went. Much of the chatter on board is about Israel and whether or not we will make it into port or will we change ports given the terrorist attacks that have been going on there lately.
