Everyone is beginning to feel a little tired after losing the half hours, but there are ten hours to lose up to Brisbane, so we had better get used to it.
It is lovely and calm, and the water is like a pond. I believe there were one or two sharks about yesterday, but I didn�t see them myself. It is still rather cold, but we have not had breakfast yet, so now break for eats.
Morning was much the same, and about 1 pm the ship started to rock again. Most people were sick. We all went into dinner at 8 pm. We ate a little better and went up on deck.
It had rocked and tossed worse than ever, and some of the portholes had been left open and the water had washed right through and flooded some of the cabins. We had to get busy and take the cases out of one cabin � another cabin had five inches of water which caused some damage. Although our cabin was wet, we managed to get our things moved out in time.
Everything seems to happen to this ship. After an hour on the deck, following dinner, we went to bed and again hopes for a calmer night. |
