A day of reflection on our experiences

Our last day at sea was again blessed by good weather and smooth seas. Sailing along the coasts of the Netherlands and Germany we saw a surprisingly large number of oil rigs, and many wind mill farms, and for long stretches we had low-lying land in sight. So civilization was never far away!

Even though there were many lectures today, this day also gave opportunity for quiet reflection on what we had seen around the British Islands and Ireland. For many it was also a day for making plans for meeting again in the future with new friends discovered aboard. Looking at the photos that the expedition photographer made available also was an entertaining activity.

The captain’s farewell cocktail was the final even of a day that had  passed just too quickly!
