Those who were up by 6:15 were greeted by this sunrise

Safety of the ship and crew is a prime concern.  While in port in Callao, Peru a coordination drill was held with the local fire department
International connections were used between the fire departments hoses and those of the Golden Bear
Another fire DRILL was held at sea.  This time with a crew member as the simulated victim.  The cadet fire fighters had to locate the victim and move him to a place of safety.

The simulation required the cadets to act differently depending on the conditions they found.  In this case the sign indicated that they were in an area of heavy smoke.
Mick Bowlin is a very experienced simulated "victim"  Here he is being carried to a place of safety where he can receive medical attention.
Maintenance work continues through out the day.

There is a noticeable change in the temperature!!

Work continues in the machine shop, where it is warm all the time.
