THE ALBATROS

 This is the Albatros. The friend of the sailor since medieval ages. The Albatros is the symbol of the Navy worldwide. The Flagman ship is usually christened as Albatros- the very very old tradition. The old saying of the sailors- Albatros on your neck- means- Albatros leads the way in the storm. Yes, Albatros flies through the wind of storms and leads the ship to the safe harbor. Albatros is a white bird- the leader of the fleet- and leads the way through the seas. He has his rest on the ship- always always. Albatros is always resting on the ropes of the sails- the trosses- here is where his name came out- The White bird on the tross of the ship- Caravelle. This is why Albatros is the sacred bird of the sailors. Yes, my husband has been the sailor. The albatros- was his personal most loved bird. I loved the ravens- he loved the albatroses- we loved the sea both. I love the waves, my husband used to warn me- the waves- it is the sea my dear, not the shore i am talking about.

I am adding the original picture of the Albatros bird- circa 1800ds,
