We were still at sea while the sun rose over the Atlantic Ocean. The ship arrived in Lisbon, Portugal a bit after noon. As this was still a class day, we were not allowed off the ship after we docked. There were some amazing clouds over Lisbon that afternoon and evening. Individual images can be viewed here.
