Day 3

The seas have settled a bit today, and we are only sailing with the main out downwind averaging about 5 kts, which is fine with us. We are not rocking so much, and life is feeling much better. Both David and I have started reading novels and are somewhat settled into the routine now, although he is still feeling pretty shitty. He has been sleeping lots, and we hope tomorrow he will feel good once more. The sun shone through the clouds a bit today, and that always makes for a better passage. We have one more full day tomorrow and hope to arrive the following morning. Thanks for the info about the island; we actually saw the pictures posted by the sailors who found the island then. We heard from a couple who left four days before us that there was lots of ash in the water, so we have been keeping our eyes open. Bye for now. Suzi   Location: S 19° 01' E 179° 52'
