Nautilus pulled out of port in Greece Sunday night around 6:30 PM. As new members on board, Mrs. Duffy and I attended some orientations and safety meetings. Our first dinner on board the ship was delicious! We had chicken, rice, fries, and so much more prepared by the great chef Jeff! The drinking water on board is processed through double osmosis taking all the flavorful minerals out of it that we are so used to drinking. To tolerate the horrible taste, we have done many tricks such as adding carbonation or orange juice to flavor the water. Our first night the crew bonded in the lounge watching movies, touring the ship, and hanging outside on the deck and watching the sunset. We even held rocks that the ROVs collected from the bottom of the ocean! After 8 PM, the seas started to get high so we all went to bed early in hopes of growing some sea legs!
We all met for breakfast in the galley Monday morning at 7:30 AM. We were served an amazing spread of eggs, bacon, sausage, fruit, pastries, and freshly squeezed orange juice. The rest of today (Monday) will be spent continuing our voyage to Italy. Mrs. Duffy and I are being trained for our new jobs and positions on board by the awesome crew!
Stay tuned!
