Of course I am without wind again, but at least the sun showed up.. But wait.. maybe I should keep quiet because over the horizon I just spotted the first squalls ready to attack. I am very happy the sun is shining again so the solar panels can provide enough energy to recharge the batteries. For now I have some light wind but I am not at all sure it will stay with me, but then maybe the windgods will be kind and let me have a good night sleep so I’ll be ready and in shape to fight with the sails tomorrow.. I found stowaways again aboard Guppy and this time they are.. ants! It is not too surprising since Darwin was swarming with them. Luckily it is a very small species that does not bite. From time to time one of them runs on the galley’s counter top which is helpul in making me keep the pantry mega clean and do the dishes in time, Becouse I dont want to see an anthil inside Guppy..
