Hej alla!
It's official: I have missed my return flight to
the UK!
Alla and allt är bra on Felicia. We have just
finished our dinner at Senior Frederico's Tex-Mex Restaurant as we were in the
mood for Mexican food ikväll. We all had the Senior Frederico's Atlantic
Ocean Special: Chicken and vegetables with taco seasoning and
some of Senior Frederico's secret herbs and spices, all over a layer of
rice...yum yum!! It was utsökt! If any of you are able to visit
Felicia, I highly recommend Senior Frederico's Tex-Mex Restaurant as a choice of
fine Tex-Mex cuisine.
We are now enjoing reggae hour on Felicia. We
have had the engine on dagen as there has been only fem to tio knots of wind
idag.
We awoke imorse to the engine making some funny
noises and sounding like it was struggling a bit, so Captain Bossy Pants went
down in the sauna and changed the filter making all things on Felicia
better. Originally Captian Bossy Pants invited me to help him in the sauna
and I was real excited that the Boss invited me to the sauna.
However, the Bossman was able to handle allt himself. As a result, I again
missed out on a visit to the sauna :(
However, we used the revival of the engine as an
excuse to have another round of rum shots, so that was a big bonus for all of
us!
Since we have been wind-deficient for a few dagar
now, we are requesting all our fans out there to say some prayers to the wind
gods to bring us some wind!!! We have enough desiel to get to the Azores,
so there is no problems there, but it is much more fun and less expensive if we
can use the wind as opposed to the desiel!
We saw a ship last natt and another again
idag. The ship idag was a huge container ship. We also saw a
couple buoys idag floating around in the middle of the Atlantic Ocean, which was
a bit odd.
In addition, we saw some Portuguese Man of War
jelly fish, the most poisonest jelly fish in the world. We stayed clear of
them! I did try to talk Freddy into
taking a swim with these Portuguese Man of War, but he declined showing how
smart a young fella he really is!!
We are now less than 800nm from the Azores and we
should be there in about a week.
We didn't receive any SMSs today and we want to
encourage all our fans out there to please send us some SMSs since receiving a
SMS is always a highlight of the dag. We will let you know in the bloggen
when we receive your SMS.
Well, that is about all the news I have for
you on Felicia today.
Hej då alla
The Felicia Crew
