Alaska: Day 5

[iamschuyler]

I saw whales! And seals! That I enjoyed.

Tomorrow we get off the ship for a while and explore Ketchikan. There’s allegedly a Wal-Mart. My grandparents are really excited about it.

Nausea can be caused by a conflict between the senses meaning that your eyes see a fixed room but your inner ear detects that you are moving so I think that being outside and looking at the horizon may help. I think being inside and staring at things fixed on the ship is actually the worst thing you can do. I have come to these conclusions based on information from mythbusters and there use of the nausea chair developed by NASA as well as statements made by my father to my mother while on Montu many years ago.

yup, Adam is completely right. For car sickness, you need to look outside the window and basically have to convince your eyes that you are indeed moving.

Well boo. I just wanted to sleep!
