Nicaragua is our final country for the mission, with a liberty port next week back in Panama before flying home. The days are numbered for my time out at sea. This thought bothers/thrills me equally, with the balance shifting from side to side depending on what I think about. Getting away from my 72 roommates? Thrilled. Wondering if I'll forget how awesome it is to live on the USNS Comfort? Bothered.
I want the 13 days to feel like forever and be over already so I'll have some reassurance that when I get back I'll still have this unbelievable memory tucked away to pull out sometimes and remember. How is that for contradiction? I wouldn't be me without conflicting thoughts to mull over.
Sunday evening after dinner, I found a spot along the port side and settled in to watch the weather change. It was one of those beautiful moments where everything felt amber colored. Good tunes, fantastic book {Love Walked In}, helo ops to keeps things interesting, and a great show put on by the sunset/storm duo.
We have had some amazing weather the last few days with extremely high seas, lightening storms, strong winds {40+ mph} lots of rain, and everything in between.
