Today we continued our voyage away from the Asmat region of West Papua and spent the day at the discretion of the Arafura Sea. Both, winds and the surface sea conditions picked up early in the morning, which made for a rhythmic and relaxed rocking of the ship. Given we crossed a time zone ahead and would have lost an hour’s sleep, the decision to have a delicious brunch served on the outside deck was welcomed and allowed for a proper catch up on well-deserved rest.
After brunch, the day consisted of a myriad of presentations including “Chasing the Light” from National Geographic Expert Krista Rossow and “Smartphone Editing” from Certified Photo Instructor Fiona Wardle. We also had a light-hearted “Sketch and Sip” hour where guests and staff alike conversed and challenged their inner artistic talents with cocktails, colors, and canvas.
