24th April 2022Bye-bye land of the whales and green hills
We are back at sea again and on our way to the English channel. Yesterday was a beautiful day as we sailed past some of the other islands and a nice breeze on our stern. waterfalls plunging into the sea all along the coast as we rounded the tip of Sao Jorge. After Ilha Terceira, we needed to head up a bit and there is no more shelter from the islands as the waves grow bigger and start splashing over Guppy once again – but we did get accompanied by dolphins for a while =D The first two days are looking a bit rough, with good winds with its associated waves from the side which makes life a little rolly, and wet haha. It’s supposed to get calmer by tomorrow though and we’ve been making good progress which is always nice.

Hi Ben
There is a beautiful picture on Facebook; https://www.facebook.com/lauradekkercalloftheocean/ and Instagram; https://www.instagram.com/lauradekkerworldsailing/
Thanks for the info Meno! I knew it would be great!
De dolfijnen zullen je al wel bij naam kennen denk ik? 😜 Het lijkt me fantastisch om zo over de oceaan te zwerven. Hier in de haven zag ik alleen een dooie brasem…🤔 Maar ja, da’s ook een vis…😅
Goede vaart, stevige wind en een fijne zout water douche 😂
Groetjes Jacco ✋🏼
Wat leuk van die dolfijnen om Guppy gedag te zwaaien voordat jullie de Atlantische Oceaan opzeilden. Wel weer veel wind en water over. Gelukkig heeft de bemanning hier veel ervaring mee! Laura, zoals altijd positief, is blij met de snelheid die Guppy kan maken.
Wens jullie allemaal een voorspoedige reis.
