Monday morning/ it’s free

‘The effort to move the giant ship was assisted by forces more powerful than any machine rushed to the scene: the moon and the tides’
– the New York Times


Word came on Monday morning that the Ever Given had been freed.  It was towed to the Great Bitter Lake for a final inspection. The last thing authorities would want to happen, is for the ship to break down on the way to Port Said at the northern end of the Canal.

What a sight: the Ever Given in the middle of the Canal, getting towed to the Great Bitter Lake.
