Day 80-88

enjoying his new cigars

pictures of the modernization of Bahrain







Lets see what has happened since the last blog? We hit halfway point....wheeeeee!!! It is like a goal and every day it gets closer and closer and I was just really excited about halfway day. It is all down hill from here and we have even started talking about planning a homecoming party.

The ship has passed though the Straight of Hormuz again which is at the tip of Oman. During this time period they had the internet completely shut down for a day or two so no family go any emails which was sad.

After that though they pulled into port in Bahrain which is where my sailor took pictures of the architecture strictly for me I am sure. My sailor has been there a few times and said it sucked pretty bad but this time he said it was much more modernized and was moving with forward progress much like Dubai. He got to go to the mall and buy some cigars and a head dress and then got to hang out in what we call the "Sand Box" which is basically a bar on base that all the sailors hang out in and then stumble back to the ship.
