We have certainly arrived in the trade winds with a
vengence. After have days of light winds and very calm seas with continuous
glorious sunshine, we have now found the stronger NE winds which make up the
trades. With the wind comes the waves and the swell. Last night we had 20-25knot
wind with waves to match so I think everyone has had trouble sleeping as we make
our very rolley way down wind. We had regular dark clouds going overhead which
result in more wind each time. At least we are going in the right direction and
reeling off the miles.
Spirits are high as we anticipate getting to the
half way stage (measured by miles to go). So I thought I'd catch up on a
photo.
