Crossing the Greenwich Meridian

Sunday 1,30pm: We just sailed over the Greenwich Meridian. This is the furthest east we've been in West Africa since 2006, when we were in Ghana (whose waters we are in now). Rodrigo, on the bridge, told us over the ship's PA system to look out for the white line in the water, and be ready for the bump as we crossed it, and the kids believed him of course. Olly

Wish I was with you - am doing the SBS at Lakeside Montana - temps below freezing most of the time, lots of snow. Actually beautiful and wear a lot of layers of clothing when going out. I miss being on the ship but know I am where God wants me. ]
Blessings to all of you in Benin. Say Hi to the Palmer family for me.
