Murphy - All change - Day Minus 2



It's Sunday and Day 1 just became Day Minus 2 as we joined 95% of the cruising class in choosing to wait for the postponed start on Tuesday 27th November - those winds are very unreliable you know.
 
So instead of setting off into the sunset on our big adventure we found ourselves flushing the spiders out of the bunches of green bananas that were delivered this morning and washing masses of fruit and vegetables in Milton solution before storing them away in the the last few remaining hidey holes on the boat. When I say we - someone had to supervise and take the pictures!  We then had a leisurely stroll along the coast to watch the start of the intrepid racing division (which went ahead despite the imperfect weather outlook). There we found these three old codgers who had obviously been let out for the day to watch the start of the race and Lucinda took a picture of them (see next picture)
 
How nice it was to have a free day with (almost) all jobs done; but roll on Tuesday - that big adventure awaits.
