The boat hasn't been this far south before so although it was a bit of a big trip it was worth it for us all to see where Ben works...it was all very last minute as the date changed several times! And so we weren't sure we were going until the night before!
And then we drove home 400km this afternoon again after spending a few hours with Ben this morning!
Here are the photos of it all...It was very interesting and the boat was bigger than I had imagined and the Bridge was a lot bigger...
Both the girls loved it...it was cold and VERY windy...we watched the boat come in...
And then watched from the gate and waited until it was time to go down to the wharf...
Waiting for Ben to appear...
Evangeline and Morganne were very happy to see their dad! It was very windy!
Then we had a look around!
Chief Officers Cabin...the not so messy part! It has a couch, a bed and an en suite...
Lots of stairs...
The mess...
The Bridge...
The back deck...as seen from the bridge...
The "wheel"...Evangeline asked to see the wheel...expecting the traditional sailing ship type!
The driver's seat...with Master Brian!
Looking at the radar..
Trying out the radio mics....
A few more things...
And then it was time to leave...
We got off the boat and Ben came with us for a couple of hours...so a bit more to report but I shall leave that until later...Lissy
