With a find farewell to the BVIs (we will be going
back|), we set off on Wednesday lunchtime, and now all I can see is
sea! We are two days into our passage to Bermuda and all is going well so
far. High winds and large waves have made cooking a bit of a challenge but
the first night we managed Chinese chicken and veg noodles, and tonight is fish
that Augustin caught yesterday - large fish with tuna like flesh but no idea
what is actually is, but has already given us
cerviche for lunch. Lots of waves breaking over the boat mean many
unintentional showers and everything is rather salty but weather is due to
settle down over the next few days. Its quite
refreshing to have no phone signal or access to email (only via satellite
coms). Making sure I enjoy the last few days on Tikka and trying not to
think about returning to reality.

Two days out from Anegada and half my clothes are wet
and salty. We keep getting rogue waves over the starboard rail ever half
hour, so today I have decided to wear board shorts. The barometer has
started rising so hopefully tomorrow the confused seas of the Atlantic swell and
the trades will cease and we will start entering the Bermuda high. Just
enjoyed a nice shower with clean dry shower.
Graham
Great cruising around the islands! First day on a long
passage, feeling queasy but getting sea-legs now and feeling good.
Malin
Trying out various ways to pass the time such as dancing
the bachata (semi successful) and reading up on celestial
navigation. We will see who gets there
first! Enjoying the sea and looking forward to Bermuda.
