We have been very lucky. Very little wind made for a very confortable trip back Newfoundland. Not a whole lot to report. I had fun playing around with my camera on the bridge last night taking long exposure shots of the ship lit up in the moonlight. It is very hard to get a good shot with al the vibration of the ship but a few of them turned out quite well! I will post some later. Today we got all the glass, plastic, and other non burnable garbage ready to send off the ship and take to a garbage truck. Last time we did this was my first day on board so there is a month's worth of garbage bags. Pretty smelly. Not a whole lot of fun! Paper and food waste we burn in an on board incinerator which cute down on smelly garbage bags quite a bit. We are working on pressure testing and replacing winch break pads today. They are set at 31 tons, half the break strengh of the mooring lines. This means that the break should slip before we snap a line. Just on a coffee break, now back to work!
