Our Boat 2nd Day

On our second day we were on a different longboat which was a bit smaller than the first day's. This boat had just a six-cylinder diesel (instead of eight the day before) and different drivers. The best seats were hard wooden benches, and Nina moved some around early to give us legroom. Some passengers had to sit on the floor. There was less room to move around and the crew walked on the outside to get past piles of luggage. We were all happy to get off after nine hours aboard.
