We've had a fun 24 hours just a bit tempered by light wind from dead astern all night which for non sailors is a very slow point of sail. Amongst recent highlights were the brief sighting of 2 whales but there' been little bird life, & the flying fish are giving us a break at the moment. The night sky has been superb & today is 30C & sunny with a 20 kt tailwind so we're at last heading almost straight there at reasonable speed. It's quite hot in the cabin but spirits are high.& we've conjoured up a number of reasons to celebrate with our Cava, a clock change day (there's 4 of those!), yesterday 1,000 nm to go & we're working on more ideas.
