The ship ride from Al Hoceima to Capers took only a few hours. I got the sense that we could have been there much faster but that Marcus had slowed us down to allow us to rest and prepare a bit.
Adesina and Sharon spent most of their time in the cabin with me playing cards or taking naps, but every so often, one of them would go up to the deck. I assumed they were checking on Marcus and evaluating the path we were traveling, but honestly, I didn’t have the energy to care just then. I needed to rest, to give my brain time to catch up to what was happening. So when I was alone, I just kept dealing myself hands of solitaire and piling up the cards. Sometimes, the best downtime is something that distracts your mind just enough that the rest of your brain can do some work for you.
