Nearly through the rough weather

One more day of roughing it out,and also Pieter's birthday today,woop
woop hiep hiep hooray!Roughest birthday he's had in twenty seven
years,weatherwise...ha ha ha.On the menu,pizza ala Atlantica,produced
and performed by the one and only,the incompatible,the great Bradley
James Canon!!!!!!!!!!Yes,at sea for twenty two days now and all
well,mentally and physically.Especially the news of calmer weather
moving in sits well with us.But we won't let our guard down and will
stay alert to the last.I must say,the strong weather is testing us and
the thrill of us getting through it somehow bonds us more and our faith
in our boat has increased accordingly.Our abilities to work together as
a team has also reached new heights,our operations running as smooth as
clockwork.

Brad is getting some sleep in,Pieter is one day older,and me,I am just
smiling at all the antics around me.And why not,no reason for complaints
on this side.And our boat,she is a happy boat,going where she can
go,riding the waves like a lady,looking after us as we are looking after
her.We are of course a little tired but soon we will be at Madeira to
charge our batteries again.

Above us,at night we can see the moon is sweliing some,casting her spell
on the waves as they come rolling through.Today we are having a fair
share of glorious sunshine,fish are jumping,spray flying here and there.

Our position at PM 01:00 UTC was 14*32'N/32*01'W.

Go you well and see you on the morrow.

Paul
