A wild and wooly night with huge swells and foggy skyline. All the sails worked hard as we ranged between 5.5 -7knts all night. Covering good gorund every day and the weather is perfect although we are noticing it get warmer every day as we sail south. Starting to get a routine going but still no fish caught yet. Love to all back hime and in La Paz Mark Jenny John & Pedro

| About: | |
| Extra: | Having conquered the east coast of Queensland Australia the biggest challenge and adventure was crossing the Pacific ocean in 2012 just months after purchasing.

The word "carnaval". The general consensus is that it evolved during the middle ages, as part of the Roman Catholic ritual of lent. I hear it concludes on 'Fat Tuesday'???
