View from the office window.

What an amazingly good weather week this is turning out to be,
particulary given that it is the Whitsun holiday and we are regularly
carrying over 600 passengers per trip. Good weather and holidays in
my experience seldom seem to coincide but we seem to have cracked it
this time.
A view from my cabin window when in Oban, showing the Calmac Terminal.
The interior of the ship is now reaching sub tropical temperatures
but as 2nd Officer this trip I am treated to the luxury of an opening
port (window) and with the judicious placing of a fan it keeps my
cabin to a temperate temperature. Junior officers, e.g. 3rd Mates, of
course do not need an opening port and it is clearly not warm enough
in the Chief Engineers cabin to justify the air conditioning being put
on yet.
And yet another sunset, but even this photo doesn't really do justice
to last night's natural show looking out west over Mull.
