Day One

1905 hrs LT. Just sailed out from Shanghai. We're headed for anchorage. Will be sailing out tomorrow morning. Had a very hectic day. So busy that I didn't even get time to eat dinner. Was at departure stations forward. Major Pain! Only one winch is working and we've got to handle all 6 lines with that. I'll go up now and try to figure out what messages have to be sent to office. Wow! I never worked so hard in the last year, but I'm glad I still have the capacity to do it.
