Land, Ho!

No, we aren't in Norway yet (tomorrow!) but we did pass by Scotland and it was so exciting to see land! A cargo ship passed during class today and we had to stop discussion to look at it because it's so rare to see anything but the sea. 
Everyone on the ship is ready to be on land and have something to do. So many days in a row with class and no real activities (and lots of sea sickness) have caused a general sense of ennui to descend. I can't even spend free time cleaning or organizing, since every day they vacuum, clean the bathroom, change the towels, and make our beds. (We are so pampered!)
There isn't much else to report, and no fun pictures, but soon! I promise! I think we're about 6 or 7 hours ahead of Nashville time (+2 more for West Coast time) and it doesn't get "dark" until around midnight. Even then, the moon is so bright that it may as well still be dusk. 
That's all for now! Miss you all!
