Sephina of Beaumaris - Day 11 Part 2 - Changing Time Zones



Day 11 Part 2 - Changing Time Zones I’ve mentioned before how the sun was getting later coming up in the morning. Today the sun didn’t rise until past 8am – after I finished my shift. A clear indication that we were well & truly into a new time zone – confirmed by Matts iPhone (but oddly no-one elses) automatically going backwards an hour – we knew it was time to change the clocks!!

With our new time zone we seemed to have sailed into the tropics! The weather is baking hot – almost unbearable to be down below for pro-longed periods of time during the day. Gone are the days of wearing wooly socks at night & a jacket in the day!!

The cats have noticed the heat increase & are spending a lot of time basking in the heat on their bellies. We had them upstairs today for most of the day – keeping our eyes on them & cooling them down with some cold water behind their ears.

Time to go & get some air upstairs & keep our fingers crossed for some wind; not only so that we can sail, but so that we can bloody cool down! & attempt to get our body temps. below 1 million degrees.
