I could cut and paste the opening paragraph from yesterday’s blog but as
we’re running short of minutes on the sat phone I won’t bother, and just let you
re read it to sum up our lack of wind situation!
On the plus side with the engine running and the batteries charging (the
boat’s and ours) we’ve started to work our way through our DVD collection, given
the boat a bit of a clean up and plugged in the mobile phones ready for calls
home. Where the wind has decreased, the amount of sleeping has increased and any
watch which involves any period of darkness (currently this is up until
lunchtime as we’ve kept the clocks at UTC) is immediately followed by several
hours of snoozing. We’re just making sure we’re on top form to be welcomed in St
Lucia!
We had a root through the provisions yesterday desperately trying to create
a new meal out of what we have left. This resulted in a fairly similar meal to
what we’ve been having for the last few weeks, but with the addition of garlic
bread! Yes, our supply of part bake baguettes is still going strong!
Out from the Sibilation crew from what will (we hope) be the penultimate
blog!!
