Today is a great day, but I don’t know what to write. Maybe I would like to start in the morning. It began with a little cleaning activity because dirt was brought onto the ship. It was a bit boring 😴.

Then we got a really nice boat tour on a science boat. It was very big and we got free cookies 😁. We learned a few new things, some of them are that they have material that goes down to 9000 m in depth or that they have two chefs on board. Sadly, we have none. But we are mostly really good at cooking 🥘. Yeah, that is no lie.

Now we got to the second tour in a museum about the sea at Bermuda. That was interesting. Now I know that a guy had collected a bunch of shells. Also, I now know a lot more about the Bermuda Triangle and things I can find in the sea, like a golden cross. But today it has been stolen 😙. The greatest thing was that we all got free T-shirts because the Bermudians are so friendly 😘.

After that we got free shore leave in Hamilton. I went out with Nepomuk, Anne, Ylva, Lotta and Sören. Together we went into a Café and ate sandwiches and drank coffee (hot chocolate, which I prefer).

Then I got a third tour, this time it was on the Alexandra von Humboldt II. When I said before the science ship was big, I was wrong, this ship is big. The Johann Smidt is small compared to this ship. But I can say that I like the Johann Smidt much more.

Then we had to go back to our ship and eat fantastic pumpkin pasta from Sophie, Margot and Helene. After that I began to watch a great series named The Artful Dodger before I went to sleep.

Yeah, that was it 😘
