I will try to send again soon - Barrie xxx

Hello dear Olya,
Well, that's me finished for the day ....are you still working? I hope you are well, my sweet.
I have taken a few photos of my cabin, and send them to you, just to give you an idea of the ship. the predicted bad weather has not arrived - thankfully! you still have snow?
We will be crew changing in Norway this voyage - so I will be travelling back from there - our foreign crew change, allows me to claim my tax back, so although it is an inconvenience, it has its purposes.
I have also booked my ticket to fly to Spain, on the 12th of January, to look at some apartments - and see what is best for me.
I will take a quick shower, as I am sweaty and dirty - ha ha ha ! and write as soon as I have had dinner - I promise not to sleep !!!!!
Your friend ......Barrie x x x
