Marnee! You are my idol!

Hello Marnee!!!

After finishing my last essay for university, and just awake from a looong sleep during the day (I spent the night hanging around with friends on the big city festival of Alicante, my city), I have time to write you a comment. I have been reading all your postings (here and on the act.greenpeace.org page) but I lacked the time for writing you. Now I have the time.

Thanks Marnee for being so good describing your feelings onboard. I could feel the waves under my bed and even woke up nervous on the day you reached the Ice island, as if it was possible for me to enjoy the flat top mountains from my window.

I'm glad you are enjoying the trip, I never doubted you would fit with the crew easily. I hope Tomakint can finally get his visa solved, it would be so unfair for him to stay home after all that effort!

A great hug for all the people there. And finally a personal favour, I ask you. Please thank personally Brian Fitgerals for the good time I had during the pledge and for the "competition". As a Big-grown child I always enjoy games, and that was a good one, where noone loses when we finally get the whales of Iceland safe. I trust you all will be able to protect them..

Hi Marnee,
happy to hear you are learning so much from your trip! Wish I could have seen you there. There were some Icelandic dignitaries on my flight home. I wonder if the cause is having an impact big enough for them to solicit help in finding alternative resources. Good luck and enjoy the midnight sun!
Bless,
kathy

I think you are right, the word that describes your trip best is Wow. It seems soo amazing and I'm so jealous :p I have a dream to be onboard greenpeace ship someday too, just like you had that dream, it must become reality for me :o!

I have a poster 'Dolphins in danger' from greenpeace and you know, when I look to it I start to hate that whaling more and more. But it is really sad, that whailers must choose whom to live happier, them or the whales. There should be some kind of compensation given to these poor fishermen I think :o

Anyway, you are doing a great job, good luck, best wishes from Lithuania ;)
