Another day of strong winds and big seas. We are making good mileage westward towards the halfway point, but there is still a long way to go.

Our fresh fruit and veg are now much depleted and what’s left looks a bit worse for wear. We are currently eating out way through a banana feast as all our green ones have ripened at the same time. We still have some potato's, onions and carrots left, so will make sure these get eaten first before we start on the tinned and packet foods. Stuff has lasted pretty well though as some of it was from Tenerife, which seems a lifetime ago now.

 

All Amanda’s cakes have now been devoured and we were hoping to make some banana muffins, but the sea has been to rough to contemplate a full on baking session.

 

Still not much sign of life out here, we have seen flying fish and some petrels.
