Rockin' and Rollin'

We've been on the ship for two days that have been filled with orientation. It's great fun to be on a very nice ship with about 60 people, faculty and staff, who are very interesting and thrilled to be here.  Yesterday we had some rough seas so motion sickness spread through the ship. Tonight the seas are even higher and I can't sleep (It's 4 a.m.). So far, I haven't been struck by the deadly nausea but the ship's movement makes it hard to sleep. I can only imagine what it must have been like for Columbus and his crew! I can't send a photo of the rough seas since it's pitch black outside and all the lights on the ship make it virtually impossible to see the ocean. Danielle and Kathleen, however, are sleeping like babies ... zzz
