One down, two to go



We've been on the high seas a week now. And, so far, a silk-sail. Just look at that sharp, clear horizon, in 360 degrees, the baby-blue skies, ink-blue seas. It's a slow, easy climb up the swells, a gentle coast down again. We've motored all morning, but by 4pm the wind's up and we're doing 5, 6 kn, due North.

We've lost "Jobber". Even "Sedna". Nothing heard on the short-wave. But we hear most of the merry gang on The Norwegian Net loud and clear today. Nice to have good company as we sail along.
