I haven't been here much for a while... Work has been far too stressful lately, I haven't had much time or energy to post or keep up my forum life... And now I'm going away for a month...

Monday morning I set off with one of my classes. We are flying over to London, and in the evening we'll head down to Dover where the pretty lady waits for us. After a day in Dover we'll cross the channel and head for Zeebrugge where we'll stay only for a day and a half, to rest after the crossing... I expect to be seasick... http://forums.majorgeeks.com/images/smilies/biggrin.gif We will also take a trip to Brugge before we depart. After Brugge, we set sail towards Den Helder in Holland. We'll visit some shipyards in Den Helder, and take a trip to Amsterdam.

After a few days there, we will head up to the Kiel Canal and soon I will be surrounded by the Baltic again. We'll make a few stops on our way up to Stockholm, before we dock at the school, on the 17th of May! http://forums.majorgeeks.com/images/smilies/biggrin.gif

My main job on board is teaching, I won't go as a sailor, even though I'm sure I will do some maritime work on board. If nothing else, I'll teach my students the COLREG's etc. http://forums.majorgeeks.com/images/smilies/wink.gif

I'm really looking forward to this! Work has truly been hell lately, so getting away for a while will be a treat, even if it is still work. And the same day I dock in Stockholm, I'll go on my next trip. In fact, I won't even have time to go home, I've brought another suitcase to work, so I'll shower and change suitcase there, and then I'll fly to England for a few long needed days off! http://forums.majorgeeks.com/images/smilies/smile.gif

I'll be in charge of a very nice and handy little digicam, so expect photos when I return! http://forums.majorgeeks.com/images/smilies/biggrin.gif

Keep a seat warm for me, and keep your fingers crossed for me, that I don't get too sea sick... http://forums.majorgeeks.com/images/smilies/wink.gif

Doesn't look good. Gone too long. Maybe just tired of everything; according to the thread.
