And the crossing began,, the exiting idea of going with a ship to Europe.
The times were mad,, we had to prepare the ship to be out of TV signal for 6 days.
The situation was the same with my boss, the bulling didn't change i still loads of hours, mainly renovating the Cruise in Review ( the DVD the people can buy by the end of the cruise), i got to see the motor, the water purification system and waste and dark water treatment room and the engine room of the ship, they are located underneath the sea level along with tons of engine workshops, it is damn hot there and the camera becomes heavier as the time pass.
The middle of the Atlantic is calm, dead calm,, like a mirror,, i didn't get to see whales,, or any animals like i wanted, I still spent most of my time trying to arrange a transfer to another ship with no success.
Put loads of back up programming, CNN and BBC podcast and filmed curious parts of the ship I've never seen.
I got to spend my hours out in Tenerife, the canary Islands. Beautiful Spanish island in front but not close to Africa where i ended paying 80 euros to a taxi driver, so he would take me to the best places i could see in 3 hours.
I got to see the volcano, the volcanic sand beaches, and the old town. It was a beautiful place, very paceful and organized, who wouldn't like to live there.
And then we arrived to Malaga,, but that is part of the dry dock story so it will go on the next post.
