Oh, the people you'll meet . . .

Seriously, take a crew of over 430 from over 40 different countries and you will truly meet the most fun and interesting people on a ship called Mercy.  I don't remember when we met Bowie for the first time - it's at least been since Liberia '07.  What garnered my attention that first time was his beard - full of pony tail holders - yes, scrunchies!  Bowie is from the Netherlands.  Read his latest post and get a glimpse of all the fun we will have when we will all gather together in heaven . . .

Last week of this fealdservis coming up. It's strange to belief that we have been her for ten months already.
 
It's bean a lot of work.this spring. Mainly making ducting pipes for the air condition ombord. (the old pipes is rotten away). I also done some work on the reefer compressor for the freezer's.
 
After work I normaly go of the ship meeting up with local friends that I got to know here.So it vill be hard to leav them behind. But life most go on , a new seasen is comming. We are sailing to Gran Canaria and shipyard for maintenes before sailing down to Congo Brazevil were we will continue serving the pore and neady.
 
Sorry no pictures this time =( I got robbed last Tuesday on the dock. It was poring down raining and the power was out, so no light. Two guys comming up to me ,one holding my arms the the other one went in my pocket and got my camera.They got scerd wen I was screaming for help and run away . I run after them for some time but I lost them (it's not always easy to se the African's in the night)
So there my camera went with all my latest pictures =(
 
Dear Father, 
Bless our brother Bowie
with the right camera to replace
the one he had stolen from him.
Amen.
