Warmer and more relaxed

25 February 2013

Every day turns a bit warmer than the day before. This afternoon it was around 32 degrees Celsius at sea. Even the water is about 24 degrees. But as soon as we get used to it, we get a bit spoiled and we put on a sweater at night, because it is ‘only’ 28 degrees. Oh well… Everyone becomes more relaxed after a few days at sea. The heat might be involved but also the calmness of the sea, letting stress from work and travelling go will make you more relaxed. And of course the environment and sounds of the sea… Some people already discuss Salvador during dinner. We hope they realize that we are not there yet, we have a couple of weeks at sea to go before we reach land again. The atmosphere is very nice on board. Everyone enjoys themselves by doing some maintenance, setting the sails over and over again, shooting stars and beautiful pictures. Today we circled around the ship with the dinghy to make pictures of the ship under sail.
