23.12.2023 – First full day of the atlantic crossing

Hello all family and friends of floaties! The day yesterday was full of energy and excitement as we began our first full day of the Atlantic Crossing! In addition to that, the fact that there are only 3 days until Christmas definitely added to the good vibes of the mess. As we get back into our groove of watches and classes, activities were running in the backgrounds. There were different groups working out and people learning how to step dance for the talent show. In addition to that there was a watch movie night going on. Overall the first day of a crossing was a good one and we’re all looking forward to the next 15 days (hopefully) ahead!
