Wednesday
Well at 4am this morning anthony turned the engine
off... Which prompted me to leap out of bed assuming something bad had happened,
like we'd run into a fishing net or something... but no he had just decided to
go sailing!!!
This meant Trina and I litterally fell out of bed!!
haha... I told you these boats were'nt meant for sailing! Luckily my watch began
at 5am so I didnt have to wait too long before i got up again!
after yesterday today was very pleasant, the
sunshine has been trying to warm the bitter march breeze, we sailed into a
lovely sunrise, very calm and peaceful...
we've had some nice dolphins playing games, and
this afternoon as the wind has dropped off I shall be donning bikini once
again! (although I'm stil a little burnt from yesterday) Looking to reach Greece
in the early hours of tomorrow morning, but whether we stop or not wil depend on
what the wind does this afternoon. We have just put the engine back on as the
wind has died but confident to sail again into the evening! Gosh this trip has
gone so quickly its already Wednesday!!!
