Champagne Hippy - Day 11- 19th November

Most of us awoke this morning feeling like we had completed a round of “abs, bums, and tums” run by the strictest of sarget major gym leaders (you know the type), due to a night of battling to stay in bed with the current sizeable heel. Being asleep or sort of asleep but concisions of your muscles tensing to keep you in your bed is a feeling that (even 11 days in) will take some more time to get used to.

The crew has spent most of today together seeking shade and breeze in the cockpit between watches. We have been enjoying each other's company and at some point, a competitive game of Eye Spy was initiated with Josh and Matt mainly winning each round. Proceeding Eye Spy was the classic of “Who am I” and then naturally following this an eye-wateringly funny round of charades. Jonnie's interpretation of Shrek the movie really was something to behold!

The morning sun has started rising later and later over the last few days so it was decided at dinner that we would move another hour back on our original boat time. By the time we arrive in St Lucia, we won't be exactly on their time and will need to adjust our clocks by a few hours but Josh and Matt say this is an effective way of moving time for now.

This evening's dinner cooked by Becca, was a hearty vegetable stew with crusty bread just what we needed at this point in the journey to boost our vitamin intake as our stocks of fresh veggies are dwindling day by day. Captain Josh then had a fantastic idea of decaffe affogatos (minus the Amereto) for desert which went down a treat!
