Karma Daze - Day 10/11 Half Way There
The weather
continues to improve and the wind has eased significantly. The waves are smaller and life on board
is easier. We have gone quite a
long way south and have so far managed to escape the wind hole that many boats
have encountered plus thunderstorms.
We are fairly near the back of the fleet but think we are on schedule for
about 20 days. Today we passed the
half way mark and opened the bubbly to celebrate, not forgetting to give a
libation to Poiseidon/Neptune.
We now have
the fishing line out but so far have failed to catch anything; we thought we had
something earlier on but by the time we had reeled it in it had
escaped.
Yesterday
was the second time we put the clocks back so we are now 2 hours behind UK
time. By the time we reach St Lucia
we will be 4 hours behind you.
Our bananas
have started to ripen so now we are into eating our 5 fruits and veg a day
mainly as bananas. The freezer is about half full and
today, as we continue to celebrate getting half way we will be having steak –
unless we catch that elusive fish before then.
