Slow Going

Compared to the 6-8 knots the boat was flying along at for the past few days, today feels much slower at only 4.5 knots motor sailing. The winds are light and variable but we are still making good progress toward the Australs. Not really a lot of anything new happening except that the water and air temperature have come up dramatically. It is starting to get nice and warm and reminding me a lot of California. Out here on the water the humidity doesn't really feel as bad either. Oh, and we saw some more whales yesterday. Aside from that everything is the same old routine. Looking forward to getting to stretch my legs once we reach land.
