So even when in the middle of the sea you (unwittingly) search for the local monster myth, and ended up with Moby Dick..? :-)
What I remember from the single sea-trip I ever had was the returning to land... After struggling to get used to the constant motion on deck, the ground under your feet feels eerily unstable when you step back onto the mainland. The crew didn't seem to have this problem at all, so yeah I also believe Ahab had a point there.
Anyhow, thanks once again and make sure you have a great time, Ahab!
ps
I don't know if I break any rules by doing this, so please forgive me if I do (still fairly new here and still getting used to "Steemit etiquette"), but I wrote something on which I would very much appreciate your opinion, if you can sometime find the time after your adventures on sea, and as long as it doesn't keep you from bringing the good stuff ;-)
