I'm back in port Elizabeth. Having gone as far south as we wanted to we are heading north, to Antigua.We started heading upwards two days ago but upon arriving in port Elizabeth we were informed the weather wasn't going to be good until Thursday, so we're staying here for a few days before continuing upwards. Which is lucky for me as I'm not sure I'm ready for overnight sailing, but the only way to find out is to try, so I'm halfway disappointed about the weather..
Anyhow, odds are I wont be able to post for some time, it'll take at least a couple of days to reach Antigua. We'll probably be going straight there, no island hopping this time round, although that really depends on weather and such. Sleeping on deck will be fun (actually I think it could be fun).. wonder where that life-vest is..
I still haven't made a map, and I don't have my camera with me so I can't upload pictures today, it's easiest to do that via Sam's laptop as the memory card will slot into it. Speaking of pictures, actually it's more of pictures not taken, we've seen Nurse Sharks (well.. they were in a pool and just sleeping on the bottom), Dolphins and Turtles, but every single time I didn't have my camera with me, which is such a shame (because small Nurse Sharks are really cute).
Now I'm sure you remember that the flag we have (the Union Ja-) is rather.. uhm, destroyed? But today we got hold of a Red Ensign, a neighbouring yacht had one spare, so finally we'll actually be flying the right flag (any bets on how long this one will last?).
Anyhow, Sandrine is attacking me on msn, so bye for now, miss you all!
PS: Happy Birthday Evert, at least I think it's today :P I'll call at some point. Have a brilliant day Evert!
