Coffee Break!!!

I'm not quite sure what to write...so this blog update is going to be a random one. 

So, there is this cold that's going around the ship and then on Friday I felt like I was starting to come down with it. It kept getting worse as the day progressed and then because it wasn't a busy day I was able to leave work early to sleep. 

Sleep did wonders, but so did eating lots of oranges, and getting some sunlight...unfortunately   I got just a little to much sun resulting in a minor sunburn. Now the sunburn is gone and the cold is gone and so I feel much better! :)

There was a day last month that I went to a local orphanage and got to play with some cute kids...some of which are skin and bones.


Today while I was working we had some pictures taken with patients and caregivers. 

These 2 little boys are lots of fun!
The little guy on the right (with the blue towel) was one of my patients for the day...yes, I now have pediatric patients mixed with adults. It's really not bad and actually kind of fun. The people in the ward joked that 'he liked me to much.' I think I carried and played with him for 3-4 hours of my 8 hour shift. It was great, I loved it and at the end of the day when I had to hand him back to mama he cried.  :(   

When I'm not working it's fun to sit out on the top deck and watch the port. I've watched other cargo ships come in dock, unload, leave...it's all very interesting. I must say that I enjoy watching the tug boats help maneuver these huge ships around. 

This ship was leaving the port.

Okay, those are the few pictures I have to share now. Leave me a comment if your interested in hearing more about a something I've already shared, or if there is something else you are interested in me sharing.

That's all for now! Hope you enjoyed this random blog...lol
