Well on our way towards Eden with very light winds and the engine doing most of the work! Just completed our second night at sea with us both managing a little sleep in between watches. The night was incredibly clear with an enormous yellow moon shimmering accross the ripples on the sea. I could hear sounds throughout the night but was unable to see any dolphins though thought them near by. As the moon dropped down to the west and the morning sun came up, playing in the wake of our bow were at least 15 dolphins. They must have been there most of the night playing in the turbulance of the sea. Magnificent and beautiful! Anne

Dear Anne and Roger
ReplyDeleteGreat to get the news updates and relieved that you passed through the Heads OK, that you have "rounded the corner" of Australia and now that you are making good speed. Lets hope the winds and currents stay favourable for your trip. Remember always that it is meant to be fun !! We are tracking you on the map. I expect that the watch-keeping is a bit of a trial and we hope that marital bliss is prevailing. Say Hi to Andrew from us and good speed to you all. Much love Mum and Peter XXX
