Lehner, P. 1964 73 Oct. 1 awakened by Binion at 7:30; up and ate chow with Fleet at Bentley's; returned, packed and waited to take gear to Shearwater; after numerous errands we were ready to depart as scheduled at 3:00 Dr. and Mrs. Ely and David saw us off; after a fine maneuver by the captain to get us turned around in a very small space, we started out of the harbor; while still in the harbor I had visions of sea-sickness but decided I would fight it as best I could when the devil struck; we passed the Iberia out of London and the Philippine Rizal out of Manila in the harbor; leaving Hawaii was a beautiful sight - it took a long time for Diamond Head to disappear in the distance; we began on a 252° WSW course and are still on it (Oct. 2 7:30 P.M.); it was not long before we started our rolling and signs of queasiness began; I managed to laugh them off and through a determined effort have successfully fought it off; I don't believe our greatest rolls have yet reached 20° so my sea legs have not been well tested; our photographer Chris was also out for his first time and became slightly sick but seems to have recovered; Auerman, Amerson, Wislocki, Clapp and Huber have all been at sea before and did not seem to be phased.
