We had a breif but nice stay in Charlottetown. Coming in was very cool. Ice everywhere and no tug boats to help us turn around and dock. It was a good workout for the bow thrusters. The town itself is very pretty! Walking around downtown brought back memories of our family trip there several years ago.
We left around five this morning. There was a little snow last night and thr coast looked very picturesque with the red rocks on the coast. I also got some more practice steering the ship through the ice, which seemed much more tightly packed than yesterday. Anyway, we should be in St. Johns sometime late tomorrow night. I'm looking foreward to a long sleep tonight after a busy day. Hopefully the wind will stay light! I'd rather not wake up to my things flying around the room again.
To whoever finds themselves here: I am spending the next little bit of time working on an oil tanker. If you know me and are interested, or are just interested in commercial shipping and work at sea in general, then enjoy!
