Cruise 1 - Serenity (Nov 2009)
Lisbon to Miami
The
Stormy Atlantic
We had 20 foot waves for the first three days at sea
Fighting the rough seas, we were not able to make the Azores
Christopher Columbus must have been a lucky guy. I think these waves could have crushed the Santa Maria
Hitting a big Wave
Some waves splashed all the way up to our balcony (8th deck, midship)
After 3 days the ocean calmed a little
Ocean waves are caused by the wind!
Each day got clearer and calmer
Soon there was no pitching and rolling
One day there were no waves
Time at sea, 8 days
Every night there was a beautiful sunset
So many different colors
Pink clouds, reminds me of Arizona

The calm Atlantic has stranded a sail boat with 6 sailors on their way to Nassau
With no wind for their sails, they were running out of fuel
The Serenity comes to the rescue
Rocking on the ocean swells, the captain of the small craft feared his mast would be damaged if it hit our ship
The Serenity launches a rescue craft
The rescue boat heads out with fuel and food for the sailors
Handing off the supplies
Hope they made it to Nassau
