Yerss...
Dunno about all you lot, here it started breezy, building up to windy.
Today is windy-plus - you know, that wind that carries the label:
"Warning: Contains Lumps of Gale".
Some roof & building & tree (again) damage in places.
(the news said gusts up to 130Km/hour but Beaufort suggests a touch of hyperbole there?).
Out like a lamb? Let's wait & see how frisky it is.

Hi Dmitri,
I`ll be away for a while longer, maybe two weeks.
For a treat for Ms Stress we`re aboard `Rhapsody of the Seas` on a cruise to some of the Islands, second day of apparantly interminable cruising, to Fiji. Weather good - its living up to it`s name so far - Pacific - the highest swell height noted so far was about a metre. Breezy though.
Perhaps Ill log in occasionally or perhaps not, its a bit fiddly.

I hope the waves stay small. I hope the both of you have a great time in the South Pacific. Fiji -wow that's exotic. I hope the grub is good, it usually is on those cruise ships. Scratch down some notes so you can share with readers. I hope the Green man won't pine away for you.

Yep, a great cruise... notes? not a one. Too lazy, too much going on but I will try to put something together.
to be fair, I did make some notes an settled to write 'em up on line but - at 75c/minute & 10 mins to figure out how to use their damn machine it was a no-brainer so you'll have to do with memory (when/if I remember to try after all the catching-upping now we're home.
Yes, I'll try

ps the highest waves I heard reported were 5 to 6 metres. The ship's stabilisers are pretty good though & I don't think more than a few percent of passengers were badly affected (except for a couple of acquaintances who were ... but they're regular cruisers, even so).
Key: Complain about this post
