[status] Day 30...Welcome to the South Pacific Ocean, the romantic ocean, our home ocean! We crossed the equator in the early hours of this morning, saluted King Neptune with a nip of port wine and went back to our respective activities. It was the 7th time in our sailing lives that we saluted Neptune, hence the more subdued celebration. And our welcome was marred with a cross swell, making the ride bumpy and uncomfortable. The good news is that this morning while pulling the fishing line in to change lures, for the umptheenth time, it had the remnants of fish on it. Exciting! This means that there is fish after all, coz, between you and me, I had given up hope.
