Remarks: Monday we are back at it with Ben overhauling blocks, Diane painting the bulwarks on the aloha deck, Rosalie taring the ratlines on the main. Sara and Christiane work a noon sight. Donald makes soup and rice for lunch. We get that a lot at the end of a long passage BUT good! Pushing plenty good for Reunion. Should get there tomorrow. 30 days at sea, but who’s counting? And we have to get there first before we count the days.
