Travel:1 Tiffany:0

I'm not sure how much sleep I've gotten over the past three days. I slept only about a hour on the flight from DC to Brussels because the people behind me decided THEY weren't going to sleep and instead were going to stand right next to my aisle seat and talk. And constantly bump into my seat. And my arms. And pull on my headrest.

I did, however, sleep most of the seven hours from Brussels to Freetown. We got onto the ship close to ten pm Sierra Leone time, then did some paperwork and ate then I finally got to go to my cabin. I had planned to unpack some stuff and take a shower but my body said "NO" to that and I ended up crashing. I am pretty lucky that none of my five cabin mates were in at the time because I don't think I was capable of rational thought.

I had a mandatory ship tour at nine this morning and I barely dragged myself out of bed in time. My body is trying to get me to take a nap but I'm afraid I will either a) sleep through dinner or b) wake up in the middle of the night tonight. I totally forgot an alarm clock and there are a lot less clocks on the ship than one might think. (I'm trying to find a way to blame the odd wording in this post on my jet-lag but I'm afraid this how I normally write)
