Already on board for a week, and settled in well. Old acquaintances met, even from Rostock, the world is small. Large, however, is the ship. Still there.
Just for fun as an example, my home, which often takes about an hour. So after enjoying the first work on the crew deck 5, the sun, then you go from there about 8 km - always straight by bike - so a quarter of an hour. I can then just leave, and then continue on foot. Two hills, two and a half miles. And now I'm home.
So that's been going every day, apart from the deck 5, almost routine. But I do not mind, I like to do. And finally, the early morning not so far away, so what.
Oh, I've also seen quite a bit, a little port of Oslo, Copenhagen and Kiel. Only on land, I was not really, but yes gibs enough to discover on board.

Arrived. In winter, at least from the plane finally made yet again seen winter. Frozen lakes and some snow fields, the first impression of Norway. Beautiful here.
Quickly to the ship, and at first the usual. All roads are all colleagues recognize, procure all services clothes - and get your first impressions. The ship is 50 meters long and a few floors higher than the small ones where I was before. Therefore acts more like a hotel and less like a ship, at least while on board. The crew areas are also much larger - and not just the bar as well as a fitness area for the crew, then I'll try out this evening times. And then the bar, of course.
Apart from that, everything is new. Once again learn to get around that still needs a few days - but is already. And in between glances throw, from now on Copenhagen, this already looks like spring.

... Flutter through the air again.
And I had been there the last few weeks. Herrlich. That's a lot more permanent than the Caribbean sun after rain, with the thirsty palms to crystal clear lukewarm water rinses. The sun is on the waterfront.
Though short, it was wonderful to be again in Rostock. And it was even better so many nice people to meet. And the early spring weather has worked out fine for my Baltic holiday mood. To see 5 weeks, too short to make everything and everyone, long enough to forget but I'm sailor degree.
So I will now turn remember going back to sea.
And because I like so Rostock and the Baltic Sea, goes this time with the first plane to Oslo just to be tidy as the one in Warnemünde to enter the ship. Nem new ship, grad only just recovering from the shipyard, also something. Larger and more modern than the two ships on which I was in the Caribbean. And exciting technology, and more things that can go broke, who knows. But beautiful, then sometimes turning circles on the Baltic Sea.
And the bag is already packed. Full, full of good intentions. Make sport, learn French, learn motorcycle theory program for Opennet and blogging of course, much more. Let's see what remains of it, you know the drill. ![]()

At home, again. Arrived in Rostock. The whole of Germany enjoys the sun, Berlin is already testing out the length of the fashion mini skirts of the coming summer, but Rostock is still cool. North German easier fog lets the sun seem milder than elsewhere.
Does not bother me, I'm glad to be back here. And play for 2.5 weeks normality. Is clearly too short my time here ...
