Oh dear, we were doing so well then yesterday the wind went. a slow and
frustrating day followed as did the night. Paul also had a bad day suffering
from sea sickness, he was eventually sent to bed where he stayed for the
duration. This morning he is a lot better so lets hope that remains. We have a
little wind today but really not enough to make decent miles, so it is a bit of
engine and a bit of sailing. we do not have enough fuel to motor all the way so
slow and easy does it. Unfortunately this looks like our ETA will not be the
23rd but 24th or 25th but hopefully before the 28th when flights are booked.
Will keep you informed. Apart from this rather depressing news, this morning saw
Dolphins coming to join us for a while, we tried to harness them for a tow but
no luck, after a while they got bored and left.
Well thats it, those who believe please pray for wind.
