Had another very good evening with favorable winds
and no squalls. Were slightly disturbing events, Ian was following a star which
after a while started to glow and then fell out of the sky, so he is convinced
it was a UFO. I also dreamt a Greek fisherman rowed out to us and invited us to
pull into his taverna, alas it was just a dream.
Had our most adventurous meal so far last night,
fish curry with fresh vegetables followed by water melon. We have now settled
into a good pattern with everyone resting well and we are getting used to
permanently being leant over at 30 degrees So far, apart from a short tack
around the bottom of Barbuda, we have been on starboard tack for over 4 days so
will probably need to stow carefully before tacking.
We are now approaching our first major waypoint and
will be hoping that today's weather forecast is favorable and allows us to start
heading more east.
Burgers for lunch and smoked salmon past for
supper!
