In the morning we sailed passed and North by 10 miles of Norfolk Island. We were able to make out lots of the Norfolk Pine trees that originated there and are found through out this Pacific region. A pod of 5 Dolphins were following us for miles. I was sitting in the seat I built at the bow of INTENTION watching and talking to them as they took turns riding the bow wave. I wonder what it would be like being a dolphin? Having that speed and maneuverability in the water would be wonderfully exhilarating. Watching them, I sometimes try to imagine what it would feel like?
The sunsets have not been the spectacular shoes of reds and pinks but silvery streams of the sun’s rays shining through the clouds onto the horizon of blue-grey water. The days have had occasional periods of morning or afternoon sun. The temperatures are getting cooler so sleeping without any thing covering is no longer possible. I’m now needing a sheet and a blanket to sleep warmly.
Love to all
Jim
