Apparently getting up at 5 AM, salty and sleep-deprived.
But when the sun rises just for you after 24 hours at sea —
suddenly it all makes sense 🌞
Next stop: IJmuiden. A nap and coffee first.

We don’t see many others doing it when crossing a bridge…
But we take pride in doing things the proper way — maybe it’s a navy habit we can’t shake?
Did you know it’s actually good seamanship to hoist the NOVEMBER flag when requesting a bridge opening?

We were limited in how much we could explore, for a few reasons:
– We weren’t allowed to declare Anker, so he had to stay on board.
– The forecast hinted at strong winds coming in…
– …and we couldn’t risk being stuck, since we’re dropping off a crewmember on Friday.
So, we made the most of it!
Wandered the charming streets, soaked up the island’s calm and authentic vibe, and of course — ordered cider and fish n’ chips at the local pub. What more can you ask for?
Guernsey, we’ll be back. Next time, with more time and a dog who’s allowed on land 🐶🌞
