Comments

The calm seas we have been anticipating have not yet arrived. Instead we are still experiencing quite lumpy seas, overcast skies with passing snow and rain showers. Overnight the “Halloween Fairies” struck and transformed the lounge area into a ghouls paradise. The last Argo float was successfully deployed last night, leaving only the CPR to monitor. REGARDS: Sharon and Leanne
