Ode to the ferry fairy

First ferry experience: Wadi Halfa (Sudan) – Aswan (Egypt): approx: 350km

To put it bluntly, the ferry from Wadi Halfa to Aswan is little more than a floating vessel on which people are let loose.

Tickets:
You need to be at the port two days before the weekly ferry leaves to organise your ticket

Departure procedure:
Passengers are requested to be at the boat about five hours before it is scheduled to leave. The five ...

Getting wet in Corfu

... Greek wine and their local Ouzo. I ate Pastitsia, a pie with layers of pasta and meat but I kept eating Stee's dinner of this fish cooked in peppers and onions. Vance doesn't do fish so he had a harder time with the menu options. Everyone was in a great mood so we ended up just sitting and talking and laughing and drinking and eating for quite awhile.

Cruzin'

... bumped and pushed and cut in front of and argh. It's like, ya'll, we're going to the same place. Relax. We're going to get there. Ugh. But, I'm trying to forgive and be forgiven. But I have to admit I've cursed like 19 of them prior to the whole forgiving thing.

Tonight was our first formal night. It was really fun. I absolutely loved seeing all the older folks dressed up. So many of them went all out with tuxes, or 'old-person' ruffled suits and bow ties. And ...

Cruising the Mediterranean Part 1

... stumbled onto his knees and nearly projected them headfirst onto the brick path. It then proceeded to veer towards every tourist who was walking, attempting to crush them against the rock wall. Much arm waving and untranslatable obscenities did nothing to deter this donkey from his mission. Between tourists he would attempt to wipe Ryan and Chris from his back by rubbing against every telephone pole. From several zig zags up the hill all Robyn could ...

The one with the AWESOME Birthday.

Friday 21 August to Saturday 22 August 2009

Had a loverly sleep in this morning whilst my fantastic crew cooked birthday bacon and egg sandwiches which were AMAZING (pretty impressive given all cooking was done in the boat's 'kitchen'). We also had champagne and juice and hung up balloons and streamers all over our party boat. It was so fun. It was the most beautiful sunny day, but not too hot and we sailed along for a bit before docking at this random pretty ...

The one where Seb OWNS the Amalfi Coast.

... to dock for our drive to Plateria, the little town we were sailing from. We had the most amazing view from the water of the Greek coastline, it was very pretty. So we docked, drove to Plateria and saw out boats.... Well at first glance they seemed a little on the small side - and we only had a crew of 5, some people had 6! But they were actually pretty cool, the lounge area converted into 3 beds (4 if you used the table) and the back room had 2 couch things that ...

A great summer.

... they spend a lot of time relaxing, because they live on an island. I have only one dislike. The water was too cold and dirty for my taste, but there are a lot of swimming pools around, so I didn't need to swim in the open. This journey was a fun journey and I will never forget it.

Everything good in the world

... everyone else instead of going to Patras
-Tatum and friend sleep through arrival and end up in Patras (Smitty tried unsuccessfully to wake them up)
According to Bosh's mom in an email, the weather back home is "pittsy"
-Callahan reduced to tears when hearing about this
-brought to teams again minutes later upon discovering that "pittsy" was not a typo
