Rivendell - Log: "Rainy Days and Sunday's Get Me Down"



5 December 2012: "Rainy Days and Sunday's Get Me Down"

Not really, it was a popular song title years ago. Today we experienced the first substantial rain storms of our voyage. Each night we've often had a very brief light rain squall, but today it was different. The winds were light 12 to 18 knots, but the rain was very heavy. It just poured! I would say that we encountered about 4 1/2 hours of rain. Interesting the crew opted to stay inside - Bruce and Ben were out on deck practically all of the time with brief visits by Ian and Dom. Everyone else were content to stay inside and watch movies that we have been down loading from the internet. Which is fine.

After tonight's evening snacks and a brief movie - we will get back to our normal watch schedule. The discussion is coming up - when can we go for a swim and what are our plans in St Lucia, and when can we leave for Antigua and do some exploring. So at the moment there seems to be a lot of ideas on the plate.

Cheers!
