Final lost sight of our last lighthouse at 0130 this morning. Weather lousy but were doing 40 nm per 6 hours under sail. Have some great pictures and video of a very high following sea.
Doing 3 hour watches which is just right. It can be very lonely looking at nothing. Watching sunsets and sunrises are probably the highlights.

Had some shipping this morning, mainly fishing boats.

As I right the sun has come out and we are finally getting some warmth. Time to dry as much out as possible.

Next blog sometime soon.

ps you will get these once we have phone contact in Le France.
