This was my first Christmas and New Years Eve at sea; we had the most amazing sunrise on Christmas day and the moon the morning of New Years Eve was also great!
The following 8 photos show the sunrise on Christmas morning. The rest of Christmas day was mostly a normal working day at sea with us MMOs doing our watch rotations. The galley crew did a great job decorating the mess room and we even had a Christmas tree. Christmas dinner was quite the spread and the galley cooked up: a whole pig, roast, ribs, salmon, crab, prawns, ham and calamari. Unfortunately for those of us who were more inclined to veggies there was very little selection but at least there were mashed potatoes! Of course there was lots of dessert too with loads of chocolate, cakes and Christmas pudding! Not too bad for my first Christmas at sea!
On New Years Eve we had a large meal which was similar to Christmas. Unfortunately for me it was quite a meat laden meal again but there was lots of chocolate to make up for it! On New Years Eve morning the moon was beautiful and although I got some pictures they don't nearly show how amazing it was. We also had a lovely sunrise but it was nothing like the sunrise on Christmas morning.
