Day 12

Day 12 started with land in sight at morning muster.  Cadets were able to spot atolls off of Cuba, and while we are not stopping, there was an excitement in the air of seeing new places.  We have also entered the “special MARPOL area” around the Caribbean, and part of the requirements requires us to grind our food.  Today’s pictures show Cadets working on that process.
