the wind is still blowing from the west, wrong way, but the sun is shining from a clear blue sky. As sleep last night was a bit broken, the Captain has ordained a day of R an R, maybe wash the boat and fix a few things. Real easy. Started the day a good deal later than usual, but with the usual dip, 15 degrees, and maybe because the sun was shining, it didn’t seem so cold. Gave a good appetite though, so sunday breakfast was pre-poned, and enjoyed. Now lounging in the cockpit with a mug of coffee and soaking in the sunwarmth. Maybe the summer will last all day. Ah, it’s a hard life! Using the binoculars, I can see the white-tops out in the fjord, and heavily-leaning sailboats, going north only. Probably some other south-going boats are taking a rest day too.
All’s well, from a perspiring SailorJohn.
