#1. ADRIENNE | ST. MAARTEN TO Gran Canaria | DAY 15

February 22, Day 15 | Mid-Atlantic Pizza shop!

Day 13…? Or something like that..

The days fly by and we sit with shorts and sunglasses and bask in the sun and listen to music. The weather has really been on our side, apart from the high pressure with no wind we are now forcing our way through by engine.. on the other hand it will be like a little sun holiday in the middle of the Atlantic, not bad for us coming from the North. The morning watch was also nicely visited by 15-20 dolphins who liked Adrianne's company.

When the wind lets us down, we get to pick out other joys, besides nice music on deck, we usually find these in the kitchen's hiding places with a little help from hidden talents such as the Vegards fixing pancakes for breakfast and Ken baking the best pizzas a few hours later, and that in an oven that has passed its best a few decades ago.

The night that passed was really dark. Now the old man in the moon has disappeared for a while and last night some stars tried to act as a night light but didn't get any way far with it. With the above said, we have now done a safety check on the deck, gone through sheets and lines, fittings and blocks. All before the downhill race we hope to have in the last 24 hours, starting Monday morning.

It now feels like we are a slightly bigger dot on the map as we slowly approach the GC with 530 NM to go!!

GC - Here we come!!
