Day 91 - CRUISING THE ARABIAN SEA

 Date: 4/5/2024       Day 91      Sea Day: CRUISING THE ARABIAN SEA

The Arabian Sea is located in the northwestern part of the Indian Ocean, situated between the Arabian Peninsula and the Indian subcontinent. It merges with the Gulf of Oman to the northwest and the Gulf of Aden in the southwest, and spans a total area of 1,491,000 square miles.

Morning Update: This is the second sea day of our crossing to Muscat, Oman.  The sea's have been very smooth and calm.  This morning it's a bit warmer and humid than yesterday with overcast skies. Tomorrow's forecast for Muscat is clear skies, upper 80's and lower humidity.  However, the UV index is extreme.  We'll be sure to bring and use our sun screen.  I plan on working some more today reviewing, processing and uploading more pictures and videos.  

Afternoon Update:  I worked most of the day on videos I took in MANGALORE, INDIA -- The beautiful St. Aloysius Chapel often compared to the Sistine Chapel.  It was built by Jesuit Missionaries in 1880 and its interiors painted by the Italian Jesuit Antonio Moscheni in 1899.

The above video is worth the watch despite the video quality.  Listen close to the commentary about the Chapel as I was walking around.  I was a bit disappointed in the unsteady video at times.  The video stabilization was not properly set.  I had to cut a lot out due to this.  But I still think it's worth a full view of this beautiful church.
