After eight hours of sleep, I woke up in a great mood and full of energy. After breakfast, I went cycling for an hour. Then I took a shower and did some reading by the pool while Hamadou scrubbed my cabin.
After that, I took a trip to the forecastle. The water is even smoother than usual, and there is trash floating by that you don’t normally see between the waves.
On the other hand, there are hardly any flying fish to be seen.

I let the day start slowly with a bit of journaling/blogging and a few Sudoku puzzles. After that, I went to the Salle des sports, which, to be honest, took a bit of effort because my energy level is currently almost non-existent, but once I sat on the bike for a while, it was fine. Although I never would have thought that I could really last 45 minutes.
After that, my room was cleaned and I was able to sit by the freshly cleaned pool for a bit before lunch.

I woke up briefly at around 4:30 a.m. when we docked in Pointe-à-Pitre, but then went straight back to sleep. At breakfast, I chatted with the other passengers, but they were only going to Guadeloupe for the weekend and would be returning on Wednesday on the next ship.

The only thing that stood out to me when I woke up this morning
(unlike other days) was that it was incredibly quiet. At first, I thought we might have stopped on the open sea. But obviously the suspicious silence was only because I had turned off the air conditioning last night…
Well, that’s how you can get your thoughts going early in the morning 😉

Yeah, Yeah, Yeah!
After my blues day yesterday, today’s going just great 🙂

I woke up with a headache and in a bad mood again.
The boys at the breakfast table are still only talking to each other and in French. Today, everyone is getting on my nerves.
Luckily, I haven’t seen Jean yet, he would definitely have noticed something… The pool should be filled by noon and we’re having crêpes for lunch. Still, I’m in a bad mood. Why did I have to get on a French ship of all places?

Cabin fever
Today I already woke up in a bad mood, but that’s the first time since I’ve been on the ship.
At least I have good reasons for being in a bad mood: a week of
fatty, sweet food, no exercise, no tasks, and no one to talk to beyond small talk.
Besides that: hardly any fresh air (because the weather wasn’t so great), always the same surroundings, and no (mental) input.

Waking up, looking at the clock: 6:00 a.m. and I feel fine: no headache, no weird feeling in my stomach, for the first time ever on board I feel fit and well-rested in the morning…yeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeah….
