Leaving

This morning the agent came and said that we are going through the canal today! We aren’t organized, haven’t even seen port Said at all, and really would rather stay a day. On the other hand, the ‘marina’ is filthy, there is wash all the time from big ships and there are no showers for women. Anyway, no-one seems to be asking our opinion.

The measurer came, and oren gave him the obligatory $20 baksheesh. Now he has gone to pay, and we will find out how much it is. I have got black coffee and snacks ready, and soon we will be off. The vhf seems to be working today, the navigation lights still not. No time to go up the mast though.
