so here we are again - water water and more water!! We're heading a bit further south today and through tonight as there's some weather starting to pick up in this area that we would prefer to avoid it possible! The good news is that if we manage to avoid this impending blow we should finally have that long awaited starboard reach in the direction of the Azores.
Last night we had a flying fish on deck. Barry tells me he was pretty tricky to catch and get back in the water. There are lots of them around today - little flocks of them appear out of the waves and fly about 10 feet, very cool!
I've been meaning to chat to you about balloons .... you know those cute foil ones that are helium filled and say "happy birthday" and the like? The ones that we give to kids and they let go of them and the look very pretty as they float off into the sky,,, Well - guess where they all end up? The answer is "floating on the surface of the Atlantic", Honestly. We have seen hundreds of them. It's not funny... (especially when you alter course to avoid them in case they're a lobster por!).... Seriously - this is the start of my "ban the balloon" campaign ... I will never be buying them again!!!
