Friday – July 9
Things are definitely looking up aboard VALIS! We’ve had good wind since midnight, and we are sailing reasonably fast towards Hawaii. We hope to go faster later in the race, but for now this is great.
The sky remains overcast, and last night was actually colder than the night before — more layers were very appropriate.
But today we’ve got the cockpit speakers hooked up and playing good music from John’s iPod, we’re planning on a spaghetti dinner (with home-made sauce), and we are in good spirits. The photo shows David, Edward, and John (L-R) enjoying the ride.
