Havent wrote the blog in a few days. Have been to busy enjoying the sunshine.
 
Update for the last couple days...
 
Still amazing sunshine. We all caught the sun a bit the other day, lying out on the deck all day. Now all have slightly rosey faces. The nights are really warm, having to definitly have our cabin hatches open to keep the breeze coming through.
 
Been having small patches of rain. I did a bit of washing the other day when we saw alot of rain was going to come through. Slightly cleaner towel now, thankyou rain shower.
 
Yesterday we had a large pod of dolphins swim with us for a while. A couple of baby ones swimming along. Must have been about 20. Again i try to film them with my camera, attaching it to a rod and having it in the water, This time it filmed but when going to look at it, it says error. I dont think its meant to be ha!!
 
We are only approx 40nm away from the first Carribean Island of Antigua and Barbuda, so should be seeing some lights for it tonight. We are heading towards Anguilla, and aiming to go around the south of the Island. We should reach there by about 4-5am. So it should be on my night watch. Make sure i dont crash into it ey! :/  Then straight to the British Virgin Islands. Should be ther by breakfast time Monday morning.
 
Sad new, Warren will be leaving us in the British Virgin Islands due to work commitments back home, so we will be finishing the trip with only 3 people. Thankfully the last leg will only be about 7-10 days, so it wont be so bad.
