We're heading north again. We travel more than 700 miles every day, so it won't take long to be at the equator again. I put my fleece jacket back in my seabag, and it was quite sweaty up on the flight deck during FOD walk today. Soon, I'll be home!

We spent four day in port, but the military mail service couldn't be bothered with flying us any mail to Townsville's rather nice airport. Jerks. Several of us have packages waiting, and now we won't get them until we get back to Okinawa. People are upset. Mail is a big thing on the boat.

Additionally, I left my shaving cream behind in the hotel. The ship's store has run out. So I'll be doing it the hard way for a couple of weeks. I'd ask for some kind family member to mail me some… but please note the paragraph above.

I've spent the last four days and three nights in fabulous Townsville, Queensland. This entry is going to get long, so I'm moving it below the fold.
