Out to Sea!!!

All I can see is blue water!!! That is right, I am on board a naval ship and we set sail on monday heading toward Haiti. We will arrive on the 8th at night and start to see patients on the 11th after a day of set up. I will be working on the ship as an ICU nurse and I will hopefully get a few days to go on shore and do some work there. Most of our patients are preassigned for surgery and we have a tight surgery schedule!!
The ship is amazing, 10 stories high, 900 feet long and there are 950 people on board. We have the capacity for 125 ICU patients and many many more med surg patients but the ship is not operating to full capacity. It has taken the last two days just to get a hang of where I need to go and where my bed i located...I am still having trouble with the restroom locations!!!
So far all is well, the ship is rocking a bit and I walk around like i have had too many drinks, I suppose i will get used to this!! Until then I wander back and forth in the halls and fall to sleep easily as the slow rock and engine noise droans on.
