Today we sailed all of one kilometre from the dock which has been the Africa Mercy's home of 9 weeks, to the oil terminal, to take on diesel fuel for our generators and engines. The sail took all of two hours, from the moment the gangway was lifted until the moment it was lowered; refuelling will take approximately 12 hours, and we will remain at the oil terminal for approximately twenty four hours. Tomorrow we will sail back to our old berth. In the meantime, we cannot leave the ship and all the crew are enjoying a weekend of enforced peace and rest. Olly
