All of us over the last couple of days have been 'hearing voices'. Dolphins? Those who have passed this way before? No idea. It can't be alchohol induced because we haven't had any since we left Las Palmas (aha, the 'DT's, perhaps?) and even Steve has stopped taking Stugeron (well, almost). Maybe it's a surfeit of protein (only about 9kgs of steak left) or just possibly we're OD'ing on garlic or fruit. Whatever, last night whilst on the 0300-0600 watch I was treated to the spectacle of  Balinese temple dances performing on the coachroof for about three minutes. Very pleasant, if only slightly worrying.
