26th April 1574
"Welcome, your governorship!"
Even before the ship could come to a halt, I lowered my head at a sign of respect and greeted the most important person standing atop the ship's deck. While I was greatly surprised by him visiting not only so quickly, over a week earlier than he was supposed to by his own words, but what was the most upsetting was that he dared to travel through the night!
I said that swimming in the rivers was far safer than moving by the horse through the night, but that didn't mean it was completely safe either! With how fast the Vistula river flow was, rather than using it's to the fullest potential, the staff on board would have to rather slow the ship down in order to have the make sure the voyage would be safe than using the flow to travel quickly.
"Hello there, Mister Mike!"
