Falmouth, EnglandAfter arriving in Falmouth on Friday evening, cadets set out to explore the town and shortly found where the dance clubs were located.

On Saturday, cadets and crewmembers took a bus tour which included stops at St. Ives, St. Michael's Mount, Lands End, and The Lizard. The tour was great and very educational.

On Sunday, cadets visited the maritime museum and also visited castles close to Falmouth. Others took the trains to explore different towns.

This morning at 0900, we departed Falmouth which is a very nice town. Now we are enroute to the Straits of Gibraltar.

Today the seas have been very calm which bas been a nice change from the rough weather we had prior to arriving in Ireland and during the transit to Falmouth.
