Norm Thagard has said that on Mir he actually got somewhat bored at the view - at
first he was excited as on Shuttle flights there was little time to admire the
Earth, but as months dragged by and his experiments didn't arrive, it soon
became "meh, I've seen that before..."

But he was there for almost 4 months straight, I think three days is quite
manageable...
