Although Europe got one hour of extra sleep due to the clock change to winter time, we had breakfast a little later than usual. We were staying at the pool instead of going to the beach, as we didn’t have too much time until the ship tour.

We arrived at the harbor at 13.15. A group of chicks was allowed to enter the Freebird One before the other guests, and we wondered whether they were part of an on-board entertainment program, but they weren’t. They just teetered with high heels over the boardwalk and occupied the best seats. So, the male guests weren’t quite sure if they should appreciate their company. The women probably didn’t. It seems that those chicks were part of some kind of local TV production, as they had their own camera guy with them and had to pose for him. However, we soon set sail and enjoyed the tottering ride through the waves.

And indeed, as we approached a small group of other boats after some time, we had the chance to watch some pilot whales. The motors were all switched off to not disturb them. However, I had the impression that the boats actually came far too close to the animals. We didn’t see any dolphins, but I guess we had already been lucky enough. A little later the boat continued its ride.

Some of the chicks and some guests started the usual barfing. Luckily, Doris and I weren’t feeling bad at all. The catamaran stopped at a bathing bay, where we were served something to eat. Some guests went for a swim, some for a barf. The Caribbean music that was playing all the time became more and more boring. Finally, the journey lead us back to Adeje. When we had entered the boat at the beginning, a photo gal made pictures of the guests that came on board. Now we were offered to buy them for €10. But just like a few other guests I made a picture of the picture in an unwatched moment. Those chicks, however, were offered those pictures for free.

Later I had another CD-ROM burnt, and the evening ended with pizza.
