Still making progress towards Mindelo (Cape Verdes). Wind has dropped
in the last 24 hours to less than 10 knts so headway has now slowed down a bit,
meaning that we will not be in Mindelo today as expected. We intend to be
in port tomorrow morning.
During my watch last night, noticed something wizzing past my head at great
speed and land at my feet. After returning to deck level from the seat I
had jumped on to, discovered that our new guest was a flying fish that had lost
its way. A bit frustrating after trying to catch fish for the last four
days with traditional rod and line to find fish committing suicide at our
feet. Karen did a runner and went below immediately after this
event.
Dolphins yesterday and Pilot Whales today, great to see.
Getting very hot now but the nights are still cool. Looking forward
to a ‘Hollywood’ shower and a cold beer when we get alongside.
