The trek so far… E-mail

Good morning my dears! Well I don’t know if it will be morning by the time you read this but it is 0302 am as I’m typing this so ill say it anyways. Well as usual I’m currently on a watch and I’m an extra for this hour so I have sometime to type up a narrative and think on things.
 

Nothing really has happened much for me to talk about except for maybe this heat we are experiencing but that is due to the gulf stream most probably that or its just dam HOT! But lately I have been thinking about home and more precisely what I will do when I get back, it is hard to try and guess what my life will be like after this Then again I led a pretty plain and mundane life up till now but I have enjoyed it but being on this voyage has open my eyes up to the world giving me a burning desire to go out and explore to meet all sorts of people and see things that others can only dream of. (Exciting) But as much as I would like that kind of life like any body, I like my normal routine with my job (which I’m missing, big shout out to FUSION!) and the people in my life like my family and friends but I also miss Liverpool in some ways too. Which is kind of weird because most times I relish my time away form the city but hey I guess I’m just a typical city boy.
 
Ok so rite now we are traveling at 6 knots since the wind picked up, it is a clear night full of stars and it is still warm but has a good breeze. (One I wished was about earlier) Also the Topgallant sail was set today by A watch sometime in last night, to which was a nice site to see Amistad with her sails all out (except for the JT) but know it is down and currently on deck so that will have to be something to look after during our watch. Rites so the plan for me tomorrow is, watch till 7am then souls and bowls (so unfair tis my day off like) and some washing as well. Imogen wants to do it rite after the souls and bowls but I think id be tired and would want to nap first. But ill see what happens and with that my dears I bid you goodbye! Thanks for reading and see you soon, TA TA!
