I have been assigned to the boat Western Patriot after the shutdown of the Snapper. Notice I do not us the word new.... That is because this boat is as old and in about the same shape that the Snapper was, gun deck may be worse.... First time out on it I went to Columbia ( at least that is what my passport tells me ). Got to see airports and a hotel before going out to the boat for five weeks of unbelievable work. Airports and airports on the way home.
Second time out it was to Singapore airport and we sailed to Indonesia for the job. Once again I got to see Airports and a hotel ( sorry two hotels ). First couple of weeks we got the gear ready for the job the sat and waited for a week to get clearance. Once cleared it was off to work not that we did not work in port.. Had to stand Pirate watch, as the photos show we are well trained in this.
Coming home I got to see three airports before landing in Dallas, took 28 hours in the air and 20 hours sitting around to get back... ( easy ) ready to relax for at least three weeks but found out we are scheduled back on the boat on Nov 15th, got off Oct 27th... I do not see how that come to 3 weeks but then I do not work in the office were math can be changed to say anything...
This next trip is to Australia so I will get to see that airport... Travel for work is not a lot of fun.
Good night, I will try to do better in updating my blog in the future.
