We will depart Stavanger via ferry to Denmark, where we will attend the end of the Tall Ship Races at the finish line in Aalborg in July. After the races finish, Kimber will be boarding the Statsraad Lehmkuhl, a Norwegian 3-masted barque, for a four day working cruise back to the ship's home port in Bergen. During this cruise, she will actually be part of the crew sailing the ship. She will sleep in a hammock below deck, and do everything from watch duty to climbing the rigging.
We figured this would be right up Kimber's alley when we saw the ship in Bergen in February.
Sidney and I will meet her when she arrives in Bergen, and we will take the ferry back to Stavanger. She goes offshore to her work ship the next day after we get home, so she will definitely have her sea legs by then!
More to come on the Statsraad Lehmkuhl when I have a little more time to post. Right now, I have to go finish getting Sidney ready and head off to school!
