A sad day on board the MV Explorer

Two days ago, on our second to last day in Vietnam, a male student was found dead in his bedroom.  Particulars are not known, at least to us who have no need to know.  This afternoon, our first day back at sea, a moving memorial service was held in the union.  Friends told stories of their new friend and the Archbishop gave a nice eulogy.  The service concluded with everyone taking a flower, walking to the stern and throwing the flower into the sea as the ship sounded its horn.
