A view from horizon to horizon

Today it’s our 17th day on board MS FRAM and at the same time our last sea day. Tomorrow we will reach Montevideo and the day after we will leave the ship in Buenos Aires to fly home again. With the exception of the day in Mindelo (Cape Verde) and Salvador de Bahia (Brazil) we had “only” sea days. In the last blogs we tried to show that these days have not been boring at all. We had different daily programs and there was always something to do. But there is something very special and unique on a crossing over the Atlantic. Every day you have the view from horizon to horizon. Nothing disturbs your observation. From the sunrise in the morning to the sunset in the evening, your sight is free. Day by day you feel more relaxed and it looks like that sea days are perhaps the best holiday days you can have.
The following pictures give you hopefully a little impression about the magic of clouds, sunsets and sunrises – and of course the moon.
