Dave and Brian's Excellent Adventures

Black Sea 2007, Day 12

That’s it, we’re off!

We’re hanging out at the mouth of the Bosphorus waiting for our people transfer, fuel, and stores. Because of political reasons our only stop after leaving port in Italy is back to Italy. It kinda stinks that we’re so close to land but can’t go walk on it. We were really spoiled last year, when we got to go to port almost once or twice a week.

We leave tonight for Chersonesos, which is off the coast of Ukraine. We’re going to wreck A, where we’ll be doing archeology and actually picking up amphora from the wreck site itself. For those that don’t know, amphora are pottery that held oil, wine, olives, etc to be transfered from one place to another.
