Day 10 Friday July 25 6:00 pm

Last night was uneventful - YES! We are now seeing air traffic at night. The sky was clear with so many bright stars. The air is warm at night you really don't need a jacket. The wind has picked up this morning 25-30 knots with big seas so we shorten the sail. It's not as smooth a ride, rocking back and forth but we are under control and feel better about it. We are still going 7-8 knots with true wind of 25. I haven't had to break out my worry necklace yet (thanks Rose) so that is good. We had the best lunch today. Gregg made fish taco's with a special sauce. We are still fishing but nothing today. One of our water pumps went out, the big one, but the other pump that works makes 10 gallons of water an hour. We use about 30 gallons a day making water every day. Our ETA right now is Monday morning. Can't wait to see land and to touch it!
