Defyr - Towards Azores: everything wet



There's a joke about sailing:
Sailing is like standing underneath a cold shower with your full foul weather gear on. One of your friends is throwing an extra bucket of water on to your face every now and then and another friend tearing up your 100€ bills.

Well that's what it was like last night except also pitch dark with couple of lightnings. I'm starting to wonder could I tape up my 100€ bills, take them back to the bank and buy a tv instead..?

The wind went down a little today, which I thought was a relief! I was dreaming of easy, calm ride to make proper food and take a shower and clean up a bit, since everything is wet! BUT NO, the captain wants to catch Webster, so we added more sails and the ride continues to be bumpy with a 15 degree angle.

"It should be lighter tomorrow" the captain says now and have been saying for over a week now. I'm really starting to think there is no such thing as the Azores high..
