quiet sailing time on the Atlantic

wind has been blowing good up until today and now there´s hardly much but we´re still doing 5k so without a Log we can only guess we have a 1k current with us. But its nice and relaxing; we can actually sit out in the cockpit and enjoy the sunshine & surroundings or as Axel say "our garden"!!

We´ve had our heads in our books today - Axel studying Management & I´ve just finished R L Stevenson´s Kidnapped and started Zahir by Paulo Coehlo (The Alchemist), given to me by Axel´s sis Susanne last years Christmas.

We´ve been chasing ants!! The critters seemed to join us\proliferate in Richard´s Bay when we were alongside the pontoon. Fingers crossed we´re getting the better of them! Our friends on Eagle Wing had a rat visit them when alongside in East London!! Nice!

26°40S; 07°26E, 974 NM to St. Helena, all sails fully up, still an average speed of 7.0 (was 7.5 yesterday), course 309°.
