Queen's Day and Journey to Hamburg

Queen's day or my favorite day ever. On a boat in Amsterdam with music pumping and everyone dancing and having a great time iis about how the day went. On the front of out boat we had a huge head of the Queen that made us instant celebrities which is always fun. Every time we came out from under a bridge thousands of flashes from different cameras made it hard to tell Ron the captain wether to speed up of slow down. No major accidents and a nice tip from the people on the boat, all in it was a great day. Tonight we start our passage from Harligen to Hamburg. This should take us about 36 hours. I sadly as the new guy get nasty watch from 12-4 oh well. We have three watch groups so 4 hours on watch 8 hours sleeping and doing other on deck work. It should be a fun and tiring journey. When we get to Hamburg we have a day to rest and get ready for five days of 7 am starts and 1 am finishes with two groups of people per day. Just wanted to checkin before we left. I have to go now customs and immigration are here to check the boat. Love you all and please write.
