Last night Guppy and I was thrown up and down. The wind picked up to 25 knots and blew from the side which would not be too much but the waves made it all very annoying not much chance to get some sleep so I was quite grumpy this morning. We are getting closer to land very fast and I wondered if I should be happy or not about that and then I decided to take some fresh air in the cockpit. Ah! What a nice… WHAAAM! ARGH, grmpbl hmpf hmpf %(?#*$& wave! After cursing the sea, the waves, the wind and then some … I changed mood and felt like on top of the world again. Indeed staying grumpy won’t change a thing. Guppy is still flying like a spear over the sea, and at this speed we are quickly approaching the coast.
