Greetings from the big blue,
Well the last few days have tested us certainly but
we're still happy though a bit damp, everythings damp ahhh..
Heidi cooked a nice homemade soup and fresh bread
today, very tasty.
The sun came out for a little while but the fluffy
clouds are not to far off. The barometers up though so here's hoping.
Katie spoted dolphins yesterday and Heidi on last
nights watch, nice to see friendly folk.
Come on the westerlys where are
you.....
Never a dull moment on board the electric
bilge pump is now gone so bit more exercise for us pumping, poor Heidi not
getting great sleep with it as its right beside her bed.
The engine battery alarm keeps going off
but have tightened fan belt and seems to have done trick and we have a rip in the sail .....Come on the Azores
...
So the Atlantic crossing you really do get it all
....
Looking forward to sunshine, dry cloths, sleep,
calm seas and nice westerlys to blow us to the Azores in record time :)
Thats all for today...
Byebye,
Heidi, Katie, Sam and Matt xxxx
