The sky is a bit cloudier today, but instead of sunlight I now have some wind! Our speed is back to 4 to 4,5 knots, and last night it even went up to 5 knots! I was quite astonished that Guppy has kept close to course all through the night. I awoke several times worried that we were going the wrong way or that the wind had shifted by 180 degrees, but unbelievably we were sailing exactly on course. At first I thought the wind had to be laughing at us but it wasn’t, and it is still here blowing. So after not such a quiet night I spent some more time today relaxing in the cockpit and catching back lost sleeping hours. I am truly enjoying this while there are no waves washing into the cockpit..
