Kantara Atlantic Odyssey

Sun 20 May 2012 16:22

OK! Biggest event yesterday was that Chelsea won - we think? We listened on a very faint Mexican station in excited Spanish - and in case correct yesterday evening we had a glass of wine with Fettuccine Alfredo.

A quiet night sailing well towards our first waypoint now about 24 hrs away - no more UFOs but one plane and a ship on the horizon. But winds now easing off and we removed second reef for first time on whole journey.

I hope someone - somewhere has recorded the match for me!!!
