Sailing to the Middle East!

 After three months on board, we have finally arrived in the Middle East! How exciting is that!

Logos Hope has docked in Beirut, Lebanon. It's a little bit crazy, but I'm so glad that we're here, having the opportunity to share knowledge, help and hope with the locals!

I also wanted to talk about what I did during the sailing. It was a much smoother sail than the one to Cyprus - only one day long and I didn't get seasick. But even still, I spent the day working. That day it was my task to make a bin. 

I had never worked with metal before (and neither had the person I was working with) but together we cracked on and tried our best. We had to empty a barrel of the dregs of oil, then drill holes into the side for the handles. We made the handles (that took some time) before finishing off with a classic engine room shoddy paintjob. This is what we came up with!

 

 

I'm actually so proud of it!
I will sign off with a picture of Beirut at night... this is a proper city!
