– why after a day in the ocean do you still feel the movement of waves in your body when you get out?

Ditto to a day on a boat or a day on rollercoaster.

Your inner ear adjusts to that movement of the sea so you dont get sick. Once you step off the boat onto dry land it will still do that even when its not necessary anymore.

Hence the legend of the drunken sailor, stepping ashore after a long voyage and staggering along the quay (although to be fair, drink had often been taken when l was at sea)

Took me a week to get over my land sickness after a week on a cruise ship. Not the most pleasant feeling!

I just got off a cruise with a bunch of friends Thursday and up until yesterday a few of them still felt like they were on the boat!
