Day 56 - At Sea

 Friday was a day at sea as we sailed north-east up the Brazilian coast towards our next port of Salvador. The seas were very calm today. I spent the afternoon outside on the Promenade Desk taking pictures of several varieties of Booby birds.  They were diving into the ocean for food. I took almost 1000 pictures to get these that I am posting.


First colors of the morning.This was at 5 AM.















The sun is up

They set out the lounge s and chairs each morning
