Semester at Sea is Sailing!

733 students are checked in and we set sail from the Bahamas at 5:00pm. We had our first fire drill before we left and they are very serious about these drills. Names were checked and we weren't dismissed until everyone was accounted for.

We saw a beautiful sunset as we left the Bahamas and so far there is very calm water; I can feel a slight motion, but it's very relaxing at this point. The noise level has increased so much that my friends and I couldn't have a conversation at dinner. I think I didn't appreciate the quiet when I had it!

I had a full day in my office and I've got things sitting on my desk to do tomorrow. It's about 7:00 pm now and I'm very tired. The work study students didn't report to me today; I hope I see them tomorrow (but they may be stuck in orientation all day.)

I think I have an 8:00 meeting, so better check my schedule.
