Log

  • Second bird has landed on the back rail. Two on the rail hitching a free ride – lazy things!
  • The effect of the Guinea Current in this region is strong. I have bene making allowance in my plotting, yet I am still further west than I thought. Gosh the Guinea Current is not only pushing me west, it is zooming me south.
