Day 6 - I went to sea to see what I could see

We are becalmed.

There is NO WIND
There is no drift
There are no ships.
No Dolphins or Whales or even Seagulls
We are alone.

We are becalmed.

The joy of yesterday's game of Charades as evaporated too.

We are Becalmed!

Well not quite true all done for dramatic affect (Thank you Miss Squires - English). The gentle bubble of the alternative engines running move R5 through the smooth waters at a steady 6 knots but even that is making very little breeze to cool the crew.

The four are dispersed to different corners to sleep. Today will be a quiet day for all.

Oh how the day changed. Calm and quiet the a hive of activity.

1. Hoisted skipper up the mast.

2. Saw about 100 dolphins swim to our drifting boat and past.

3. Jump off the boat to swim in the cool blue sea

4. Wind picked up for our passage to Lisbon.
