No Wind/ Motoring
Ahoy there Matey's. Greetings from the big
blue........and a typical Azores high aka sunshine and no wind
As yesterday evening wore on the amount of canvas
was intially increased from three reefs until it needed to be completely reduced
to no sails and the hum of engine, unfortunatley has become our
power.The wind has died, however there are rumours of the wind increasing
in the early hours this evening and to be honest I hope it comes as santity of
some crew members is definetly becoming questionable. Not one, Not two hours,
not three but four hours of cards below deck from two crew members and now a
highly entertaining dance/aerobic session from young Miss Ridley and Miss
Wilson. Are the guys in white coats avaliable to pick up out
here?? hehehehehe. No well at least spirits are all high and the
ever present daily sunshine is a little compensation for the present lack of
wind.
We were also presently greeted from a school of
atlantic dolphins this morning who played in the bow wave, showing true grace
and power with a synchronised swim performance.
Adios from the definitily mentally horizontal
and almost insane team Gertha
