Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!!!

We just finished celebrating Christmas on the ship. It was a little odd singing Christmas carols in high 70’s heat but we all managed to get in the spirit eventually.

Our Gingerbread House competition entry of Rockefeller Center.
We were a favorite to win the competition but were disqualified for “excessive preparation”. #sorrynotsorry

The month of December was filled with Christmas activities. There was a Christmas Bazaar where various handmade goods and treats were sold by crew members, multiple caroling events, lots of Christmas movies, and perpetual baking of Christmas goodies.

The door to our supply office. Decorated from expired medical supplies (breathing tubes, adhesive plastic sheeting, exam gloves, emergency blankets, and biohazard bags).

Though I greatly missed my family and friends back home I was able to enjoy the Christmas season. Thank you all for your continued support, words of encouragement, and season’s greetings. Much love to all of you as we enter a new year and decade!!

Myself, Abibe (Senegalese local worker), and Eric (my coworker from Benin)
