Sept 4

The usual A class schedule of 3 long classes. It is getting repetitive but we are getting into port SUNDAY! Thank god. I feel like we are all losing our minds and some have the case of cabin fever. Being around the Equator there are lots of little rain storms here and there and there is constant breeze and high seas. The storms bring constant clouds in the afternoon as least. Most of the day you can tan from 9-4. We crossed the Equator tonight at 8:30 pm ship time. Very anti climatic, almost like New Years without the booze. The ship blew one loud horn, everyone cheered, and that was it. People were taking pictures of the water and groups of friends, yada yada yada. Lauren and I made a sign “We are crossing the EQUATOR” and took a picture. Nothing corny ;) With crossing the Equator we are celebrating Neptune day tomorrow. Only details I know : 1. No Class 2. We get 6 drinks during Pub hours 3. People are supposed to shave their heads?? I know I will not be part taking in any shaving of heads but we shall see what the days festivities entail. Until then….
