Still motoring, with a little sailing off & on. The jib & main up & down & every chance we get, we sneak in the reacher for the jib. Not too often or often enough........... It's been an odd kind of day. We woke up to fog??? mist??? & it's been cooler than usual which is a real blessing as it was blistering hot yesterday. There was the oddest stuff on the water. Sorta like algae but not green, almost an orange color that smelled like vegetation ~ kinda. Dave said last night that there was phosphorescence in the water all the way to the horizon. Rendezvous Cay said it was like the stars where in the sea & that they saw a sperm whale. I'm not totally sure they weren't teasing us as we keep telling them about our dolphin encounters. Before lunch today we went out on the bow to watch the dolphins again. Today they were serious though, they were hunting. A few would come by & say hello but not stop & play with FB. They were at least 2 big pods of them & some of them were easily 10 ft long. The fish were really flying & the dolphins were doing some very sharp tactical maneuvers. All of a sudden a booby flew over. We haven't seen one in ages. It looked like it had a pale blue bill. I thought maybe it had come for a ~ free ~ bird ~ ride too. But no, it was going hunting with the dolphins instead. Ratz..... That reminds me of when we were leaving Kochi, the Immigration officer came up to our boat to give me back my passport. After he handed it to me (he would not give it to Dave earlier when he was trying to check us out..........) Dave asked him if it was stamped? All of a sudden there was confusion. He took it back & looked, he wasn't sure. He said it was hard because we were anchored by WindBird, our buddies from the US. He said the Birds, Wind Bird, Freebird. Which one was it???? This Bird or That Bird. Now we affectionately refer to each other as ~ them, ThisBird & us ThatBird. Probably better than the DirtyBird that we were earlier. Well then there is always TB or SB. hehehehehe PS We have been sailing now for the last 5 hours....yipee! Hope this wind holds for a while....making good time now...560 mile to go...
