Friday afternoon ...

... and slight adjustment of our routing. We plan to follow the Italian coast line all the way down to the heel of Italy and hopefully we will reach Messina on Saturday evening. Great weather today, sunny,  +23 C and and a wind of 5.5 ms. It was  bit tricky for me to keep Pixel on the right course on my first try this afternoon.

Earlier today it was calm enough to bring out  a deck of cards on deck (Annika and Eva) while Tore was keeping watch for obstacles in front of us. Rice cooking under full sails is a challenge.

Early morning...

...after 25 hours at sea after leaving the island of Vis. We work in three hour shifts on a rolling schedule: 3 hours active duty, 3 hours on stand by followed by 3 hours of rest. If everything is OK we can rest a bit during stand by.

In order to stay fit and happy we have our sun aerobics teacher Annika.
