07:16.51S 32:45.56W As at Monday
evening 6pm (UTC) we have 124 nm to go to Cabedelo and we are all excited -
should be there by tomorrow evening. Cabedelo is a town on the Paraiba
River in north west Brazil. We have been at sea on this leg for about 10 days
now, and it is interesting to notice the changes. We all "shower" off the back
in sea water now - excellent fun - (but still rinse with fresh water). I hunt
for things to put in the washing machine, with the duvets packed away and us
all only wearing our bathers. The bread machine is a winner, and the French
loaf seems to be the favourite. Our "drama's" are restricted to a bit of
flooding when a hatch is left open, or a fishing crisis - like the favoured
lure/ teaser that got RIPPED off the line by something big a little while ago.
We have done 3500nm (6500km) so far - and the good ship Indigo is taking good
care of us. Love to you all Lynn & co
