A whale of a day.....

18:54.9N 020:16.5W It’s been an eventful day on the good ship Magrathea
with plenty of sea life coming to say hello. Nic caught a Marlin this morning and Tim reeled in a Dorado this
afternoon which was duly dispatched and is on the menu for lunch tomorrow. Twice today we have spotted whales....big whales with round
heads – see pics below....we set a challenge to anyone bored on land who
would like to play David Attenborough and let us know what species they are! We also woke up an enormous turtle who popped its extremely
large head up as we motored by looking thoroughly annoyed at being woken up
(Nic thought it was a shaved dog....must keep him off the beer!) The weather has finally decided to play Sarah’s game
with clear blue skies and glorious sunshine so we have broken out the bikinis
and the suntan lotion (some of us using this more than others....there is a
distinct tinge of rouge to a couple of the crew members this evening!) Unfortunately
we have had zero wind all day so are still motoring south to try and find those
elusive trades. However, the calm seas have enabled Sarah to break out the bread
maker for its first sea trials – worked a treat and we are anticipating
fresh baked bread for breakfast tomorrow. BGAN Phone: +870 773 152 730 www.yacht-magrathea.com __________ Information from ESET NOD32 Antivirus, version of virus signature database 4710 (20091222) __________ The message was checked by ESET NOD32 Antivirus. http://www.eset.com |
