THE CRUISE - Oslo to Brugge...

Day Fourteen - 1st July

For most of the night and for much of Friday, there were strong winds and a fair swell. Not a problem, unless you are inclined to sea-sickness, but you do get woken occasionally by the rolling, and so sleep is interrupted somewhat.

Another full day at sea, and a "straight jacket" night. 

By the evening on Friday the weather had settled down a little, but it was still too windy to be on deck. Hence the inside areas were pretty crowded, and we spent some time in the Glass house doing our Crosswords, etc.

The seas were much calmer later on, and we were able to go out on our balcony and watch the passing parade. There were a lot of ships going the same way as us, and few the other. All around, you could see oil rigs and windmills, and at one point we counted 23 or so oil rigs.
