ken-thanks to the weather I was able to watch the 7th episode of band of brothers last night to try to recap on the story I started to watch on ushomi in may, only another 5 to go! with the engine on and the sun glistening of the sea its hard to imagine just how cold and miserable it is at home, it does not feel Christmassy at all so tonight I will festoon the boat with my fairy lights and play some xmas tunes. must dash have to wash my smalls and get them pegged out while the sun is shining.

Morning! woke up to 'Dolphins, dolphins at the bow'. Got up quickly and got some brilliant footage on my video camera of the 9 dolphins swimming across the bow and into the depths and then the  sunlight. The water is so clear - you can see them go down quite a long way. However, note to self - press record next time as  well as switching it on !!  Lovely sunny day and a gently breeze has just started. Back to my book! Hope its not too cold a yucky at home!! he he!! Caroline x
 
200 miles from Africa, 500 miles from the cape verdi islands surrounded by sea, sort of the right direction who cares, I don't, its heaven baby, pure heaven. TTFN Ch x
