Sailing on the B’eau

This weekend me and Adrienne went on a sailing trip with her colleagues. We were 23 people on 3 boats. Our boat was called the B’eau, I have no idea what that means, but it sounds like the noise that half of the crew members made after half a day of sailing… I never sailed before in my life, but knowing that I am very prone to motion sickness, I stocked up on drugs, just in case… But when I wanted to change the lens on my camera and went below deck into the cabin during sailing I had the pleasure of enjoying my breakfast for the second time, “B’eau!”. I wasn’t the only one, on the other boat even half of the crew was mentioning the name of our boat over and over again (check out the picture of Tomasso and Ruben scrubbing off the breakfast from the deck).
Of course you can’t go sailing with a lot of engineers without bringing a bunch of laptops and establishing a live video connection between the boats. Obviously it wasn’t very useful but hey, who needs useful, it’s cool right!
The second day me and Adrienne also got to sail for some time, which works excellent against sea sickness (when you do it yourself, not when Adrienne makes the boat do the port starboard merengue). I shared my pills with everybody and with a double dosage nobody got sick on the last day. Beau!
