DAY 19 TRANSATLANTIC CANARIES TO CARIBBEAN

22 December 2009 | 900 nm to Barbados
ok wind today
Barbados is looking really good now since we had news from some of the boats who have arrived and checked out the animal situation. Apparently animals can go in as long as they quarantined aboard the boat. Poor Milo...27 days at sea and he still won't be able to set foot on land...not sure we can do that to him. We'll make that decision when we're about 300 miles off shore. We've done 91 nautical miles since yesterday but winds and speed have picked up this afternoon so maybe we'll have some better news tomorrow night. We ditched the muesli wrapper lure and reverted to our flouro green squid lure and picked up a Mahi Mahi (about 50 cms long) that will be lovely for dinner tonight tossed in flour, cooked in butter and doused in lemon and salt....mmmmm. Saw and spoke to a boat load of French guys who are delivering a boat to the Caribbean for a Canadian owner. It was great to have a chat and we came quite close to each other and waved but because of the configuration of both boats sails we couldn't get close enough to chat in person...oh well...we'll talk to them again on the VHF.

About:
We left Australia on April 29, 2007 to start our 'cruising the world' adventure with an attitude that life's too short and waiting until retirement might mean the adventure never happens. Sam turned 15 this year and we hope these travels will stay with him for life...in a good way. [...]
Extra:
Also travelling with us is our Shih Tsu Milo, a seasoned boat dog all the way from Australia and an avid fisherman. He's always the most enthusiastic when we land a fish or when the bait net is cast. Actually, he's even enthusiastic when we haven't caught anything. He adores dolphins and runs like [...]
