Ahoy Sailors;

These past couple of days we have had a mixed bag of good and no so good. On the good side we gone south of the Tropics (around 23deg) so it means its warmer (sea temp at the moment around 30C).We have also done just over 1/3 of our journey and have followed the Pet Shop Boys advise and gone West.

On the down side we did get some interesting weather including some nasty rain for Kate’s watch; we also have realised we still have 2 more weeks of been chucked about by the sea; and lastly we heard that England lost at Rugby again!!!

A part from that we are all good specially now we are heading straight for the BVI; We also have noticed that the ocean seems to be split in different area with a dominant wild life in each. We have now it seems left the “land” of the Dolphins and have entered the realm of the Flying Fish as it is the only creatures we see except for the odd whale; God only knows where our journey will take us next (we hope the BVI).

After now a week since we left the shores of Tenerife we do feel like 3 small hobbits lost in the vastness of the sea trying to make our way home... I feel a book and/or a movie coming on i even have a title for it:

The Nhobbits (naval hobbits) the Quest for Land!! how's that for a best seller!.

By now you must think Ben’s lost it but not just yet; For the time being i leave you with a few pictures of Stardust crew and thanks to Kate for the T-shirts.

Till next time.

Captain Ben signing off Rrrrrr!
