A Once In A Blue Moon Kind of Saturday Afternoon

Hello once again…

Hoping you all are in great shape and condition as you read through this article.

It was Saturday afternoon and we had scheduled a shower party for the crew so they can all relax and have fun after week and weeks of working hard diligently and patiently.

During night time the crew goes fishing and while some seafoods they caught were immediately cooked, they sat aside the excess seafoods for future use and Saturday afternoon was the time we were going to all partake in it.

The grilling stand was prepared, charcoal was lit up and the seafoods were lined up on top of it. Some crew waited and oversee the cooking of the seafoods. There were also lamb ordered earlier from ashore which was delivered to our ship right before the event.

Some crew went under the shower rigged earlier. The coldness of the pressurized seawater rushing and flowing through my body felt great. It’s like having a full body massage.

Then, it was lunch time. Time to eat the foods lovingly prepared by the crew. The crew had a nice and fulfilling lunch. Well, who wouldn’t? The foods were great and the cool breeze adds up to the ambience.

The mini-shower party goes on after everyone had lunch. Others continue showering, others went and play cards, some had their drinks, and others… well, continue eating…😂😂😂.. some can’t just get enough of these freshly caught and cooked seafoods...I belonged to this group, too😅

The party continued on until night finally falls. We had our dinner, more drinks and laughs about the day to day lives of everyone. Some future plans were discussed. Some advices given to fellow crew who were just starting out on their journey of seafaring.

It is nice when the crew can gather for events such as this.
All the crew had fun. The crew felt refreshed… ready for another week of hard work.

We wished peaceful and happy moments like this will come again some other time.

Till next time...
