Qatar trip - Post # 3 - Sea Day # 3 (of many)

Two days ago I took an Augusta Westland 139 out to sea. I'm located at the circle on the map below next to "Idd Al Shargi". It was my first helicopter ride of the year (I've taken plenty through the years).

Today I did a lot of walking and climbing up and down stairs. The weather has been pleasant so far - the wind and sea has picked up a bit.
