banner-water-01-01  Session One - 17 August 1999

17 August - Breakfast at Roditi's Home.

Leg one

"It was a magnificent moment when 16 different nationalities gathered in Adi's (one of the Israeli peace sailors) house for the breakfast, prepared by his beautiful wonderful mother. It was a moment of mixed emotions: happiness, fulfilment and achievement, we felt that we were really the peace sailors and that was a special occasion especially for the Palestinians and Jordanian.

After that we returned to our ship and started our way to Larnaca, our last stop."

 

17 August - Arrival in Larnaca

Leg Two

"The Second Leg of the Peace Cruise is starting today; by and by all the participants arrive in Larnaca on Cyprus. The Cypriot Scouts are hosting us in their Scout Centre in the mountains of Cyprus. It is truly a camp and accommodation is rather simple in huts.

In the evening the Cypriot Scouts have arrange a wonderful party for us, although only a few of us have arrived. The excitement grows during the camp fire as tomorrow is going to be the first day of training."

 

 

Transmitted from one leg to the other, the flag of the International Year for the Culture of Peace flies on the boat during days out at sea.
