wooppeeeeee we made 138 miles to the good every one of them.. so that makes us 66 miles to 3000 mile maker all night we made 6 knots and even 7 .. with 17 knots of wind

1030 the fog came back .. and well just before that.. we had a SUR REAL moment. with the Dolphins/mermaids we could now understand why some people at sea say the see mermaids as this was amazing they came a dozen or so. and played off our bow.. they were just lights of phos ferecnce.. streeeming playing.. singing.. it went on for over half hour. we just watched cheered sat in AWWWWW never before such a site for any of us..

the fog filled in off they went and we all sat back went to our bunks and well just in AW

this am the sun came back just after 10 am. and burt off the fog.. we are in 40 degreee nightsw.. and the cold water at 14 makes the cabin sole chlly to the point of being damp.. you get a refreshing face wash in the water as the water in tanks is chlly too

yet we all agree we would not change a thing for nights like last night and the perfect winds and seas now as we race along homeward bound in some sort of a current.. we thinks as gee for over half hour i watch our speed and we did not drop under 7 knots.. gee if we get that .. it will make up for lost miles..

so till futher ado i have muffins in the oven and biscuts cooling on a rack .. and well gee. busy day. ahead..

hugs to all
