[London, United Kingdom] The Logos Hope is docked for 2 weeks in London. That's a great opportunity to visit!
But most of my schedule is shared between the IT office and the visitor deck. Indeed, if the week is fairly quiet, weekends are busy with up to 4,500 visitors a day, a good preparation for the Caribbean next month. So I went to lend a hand to the welcome desk or to give tours. And it’s very refreshing for me!

[London, UK] Every morning, the ship's company gather for a time of devotion. But this morning had a very special flavour: for the first time we gathered in the Hope Theater. This is the biggest conference room on board.
When I join the Logos Hope a year and a half ago, the welcoming party took place there, and at that time, it looked like that:
Today, after many hours of work, we had the first evening and 400 young people came:
In a few days, we will welcome school visites, youth groups, churches, and various conferences. It's exciting to have this new tool, but this opening is also another step in the renovation project which is clearly coming to an end. We are grateful for all the work that has been achieved by hundreds of people who gave their time and talents to build this place. Through them, we have seen God's provision for us.

[Cardiff, Wales]After Belfast and Dublin, we are now in Cardiff, the captial city of Wales.
The arrival was impressive as we had to go trhough several locks before coming alongside, at the heart of Cardiff bay.
And some places were tight:
really tight!
About one meter on each side of the ship.
But we all arrive safely! Congratulation to the Captain and the deckies!

In the Jaw of the Whale

[Torshavn, Feroe Islands]Short visit in the sheep island -The Faeroe Islands - where twice as many sheep as people live. The hospitality of the inhabitants warm up the fresh weather (I have seen snow!). Before being a floating library, the Logos Hope was a car ferry - the Norröna - linking the Faroe Islands to the mainland. We felt feeling of ownership of the population for this ship which marked their history of the past 30 years. Overthe 10 days of visit, 14 800 visitors came on board, which represents 25% of the population! Here are some pictures of this fascinating country.
Hiking in a wonderful landscape.
Some cliffs are more that twice the heigh of the Eiffeil tower!
The piece of wood on what I am lying down is in fact a whale jaw. If we can't find giant whale in our plates anymore, the pilot whale hunt is still a big aspect of the culture here. Notice also the grass on the roof!
