[status] On we go NWly, and into the High - should be in the calmer stuff by Wednesday, which will be a welcome relief from the bashing into bumpy seas that has been our lot for several days now, even if it does mean having to listen to the engine! But the sun did come out for a brief showing this afternoon, and when it did a huge herd of dolphins (they do swim in herds, don't they?) swam by about 100 yards off our stern (thank you, Ann!), although they did not stop by the boat for a visit. Oh well, maybe next time! The exasperation continues with this prolonged passage and having to do the weather systems dance, but still "All is well on board!" Thanks for following us on YIT!

I can't change the direction of the wind, but I can adjust my sails to always reach my destination.
