A quiet morning and breakfast with
friends. Outside and inside temperatures are cool so most are now
wearing warmer clothes. Not the usual equatorial temperatures. Our
heading takes us south along the westernmost tip of South America;
Peru to be precise. Passing about 18nm off the coast we can see the
mountains. Throughout the day there were reports of whale sightings.
I spied one blow and back sighting. In addition I spotted four
containers ships passing to landward of us Northbound. About 1pm, as
I has missed the noon numbers, our Noon to One run had been 212 nm
for a total voyage of 2,488nm. Much of that time had been in port
going nowhere.
Tonight's dress code is formal and
since my formal wear, two sport coats w/slacks, shoes and ties are
supposedly en route by air to Callo, Peru, I will dress in my
remaining sport coat. I look forward to my reunion with the big
black bag.
Again we have an outage of the
internet service and so the postings are irregular and email lags.
