Azores > Portugal - Day 4: More Motoring & Acquiring Passangers

The wind has been non-existent, the seas are calm it is mild, dry and the sun is shining. Nothing to complain about (except the lack of wind). Today we took on more passengers, several groups of doves flue by and a few have decided that "flying is for the birds" and decided to sail instead.

Taylor Swift is still with us, she cam inside overnight and had a long sleep, she is now back on the lifeline at the stern of the boat. Doirbhail has adopted her and Taylor shows no fear of her biggest fan.

Now of all the places to park yourself, you chose that spot!!

Whacky Races - Stop the Pigeon

We are also trying hard to avoid the numerous turtles, that are surprised to see us:

It is 6.36pm and the wind is starting to guild, we may finally be escaping this wind hole, only about 420 nautical miles to go! Should be good sailing from here on out.

Now that is what I like to see! We are in that sweet spot where the wind has started to blow, but the seas have not built up.
