In the eye of the storm


It was not possible to take much avoiding action because a large portion of the Bering Sea is out of bounds due to a massive joint Russian Chinese military exercise. So the Silver Shadow is rolling with the massive waves. TSH and Diva took a rare lunch in the Deck 4 restaurant and spent the whole day on deck 4 or deck 5, as there is much more movement on the higher decks. Some guests and crew are unwell. But the waves and wind are not as high as on the famous Atlantic crossing of 2012.
Otherwise, ship life plods on as normal, even with the waves crashing against the windows. There are Yom Kippur readings and services.

The time has shifted back by an hour every night since leaving Kodiak Island.
