we can see land!!

We can see the port of Cotonou. There has been a helicoptor filming the ship arriving which has made the boys very excited! We are waiting for one of the engines to be fixed before we can arrive in the dock. The ship is praying that this will be done quickly and that we might be able to arrive today.

Update (Tue am): We spent the night at anchor, while the engine was fixed. We are planning to go into port this morning around 8:30 (GMT+1). Please pray for Captain Tim as he guides us in. The port at Cotonou is a very difficult port to dock at - the last two times the previous ship (the Anastasis) docked here she ran straight into the dock causing damage to the ship and the dock.
