high spirits! We are longing for warmer weather but I think this weekend
it looks like better weather in on the cards, however its not hampering
our moral! We had up to 35 knots last night and this morning, squall after
squall and they are still coming, but lucky they are coming from behind
us. We have had wind from behind nearly the whole time so far and blowing
us right in the direction we need! The swell has been around 3.5m - 4m but
it too is from behind thus also helping with the speed. We are still
fishing but no luck yet apart from catching some toilet paper!! Whoop,
whoop, I cant wait to catch a Dorado.
As I mentioned before Ci Ci (my dog) is also loving the trip, I took her
for a walk around the boat this morning and as soon as we get to land I am
sure we will upload some pictures!
Our current position is 25 degrees 00 00S and 007 degrees 25 46E, we are
780nm from CT and heading is 335 degrees and should be close to St Helena
and well in to the tropics by Monday.
We had a braai the day before yesterday, Dustin cooked awesome wors and I
look forward to many more! What a difference having a braai onboard!
(sorry for last year Herc, you were so right!)
Well everyone says a really big HI! we are blowing our vuvuzela and really
upsetting our neighbours!
P.S Any comments on the blog are recieved onboard
