We have one true macho onboard, and that is
Andreas. He is the one who refuses to sit when he does nr 1.
That leaves us with some cleaning work but today
unfortunally his resistance did not pay off.
The other thing he does to our grief is to slam
open doors and he does not care if they lock in open or closed position. That
means we can all be in the cockpit and suddenly hear a SLAM! and that is of
course a door left open that the waves closed with some dynamite
sound.
That did not pay off eithér to our small 5 year old
macho.
This morning he slammed the toilet door open and
held himself on the part of the door where the hinges are and the wave slammed
the door closed on his little pointing finger while he was doing nr 1. Poor boy,
Ellinor does not think anything is broken but it is smashed. Now he walks around
the boat with his index finger pointing right up.Hopefully that was the drama
for today.
Pink pankakes, what do you say about that? Well I
think they look absurd, the kids love it, Ellinor and Erika put a few drops of
food dye and WOFFFF! you have very pink pankakes!
Well at least that's exciting for a family that has
not seen anything but sea for 14 days (OK dolphins one day)
This 1st of June we have sailed 2193nM, wich is
about 200 more than sailing the Atlantic.We have 855nM to go before we are in
Fatu Hiva.
We are at 5S with good winds waiting for tomorrow
afternon and see whats happening with the big waves coming in. If we are lucky
they will have LOOOOOONG periods and we can aim for Fatu Hiva
directly.
My guessing is that we will be there friday or
saturday a week from now.
