30 November 2011 or as those aboard like to call
it, 'treat day'! Passed the halfway mark last night and still going strong
at 7-8 knots. While not completely depleting the stocks, extra rations
have been awarded today. The lunchtime wrap will be accompanied by crisps
& chilled cola and our last spagetti bolengese is defrosting for dinner
tonight.
A couple more fish caught yesterday and lines back
out today - one more required for a full meal compliment. The doctor has
dissected the fish and found two blue squid, establishing the blue lure is the
best.
Lines were pulled early yesterday as we were joined
by a pod of whales surfing the waves by the boat. As fun as it was to
watch, we were all glad when they left us after an hour - one was looking
particularly amourous towards the hull! During dinner we were joined by a
swallow. Unfortunately it couldn't find anywhere to land and rest so flew
off again.
We've seen/heard a couple of boats - presently one
6 nm on stbd beam. Otherwise nothing on the horizon except blue sky &
suhshine..
