“Hey. This water’s really warm,” said Nigel as a splash of seawater landed on his hand. Two seconds later six gallons of water hit him from over the side.
 
The sea likes to play little tricks like that.
 
Certainly King Neptune has had a good laugh at our expense since we left Puerto Mogan: rough seas, gusty winds, rainstorms. Lovely Smile
 
We’re in calmer waters now and the sun is shining at last.
 
The good news for everyone back home is that we’ve hardly been able to eat for two days so it’s doing wonders for our waistlines (not Dave’s!)
 
Coupled with our nice grey beards, this means we all have a touch of the Robert Redfords about us.
 
We’re having our first go at baking bread today. Wish us luck with that one!
 
Have a great weekend.
