Ship's Log:
Weīve finally left Madang! About 1500hrs we waved good-bye to our shipping agents Duncan and Raymond and all the security guards; they didnīt want us to leave and followed the ship as she moved around the point. We felt relief, disbelief, anxiousness and excitement. Within one hour people were sick, throwing up and horizontal. Twisting motion, quite uncomfortable, even crew on since Victoria felt it.  Few ate supper, everyone to bed early.
Good attitudes; James said he loves looking at the phosphorescence in the water which he did quite a bit of as he hung over the side. It is warm below decks but everyone doing their best to help those who are not well.  Good night, Bonice.
