Just sailing over the mid Atlantic ridge. Had a few lectures about the ocean including the tectonic plates making mountains at the ridge. Weather's warming up 25 today 27 tomorrow. Sea has been rough probably stirred up by big storm. yesterday it wasn't windy, so the the sea was smooth & glassy but it had a slow moving 4m swell, so the shipping was moving about quite a bit. Today it's windier but the swell is down to only 1m. We have been watching the flying fish, they get disturbed by the ship, leap from the water & fly perhaps 50m. Very impressive. It's very isolated here, we have run south perhaps to level of the Canaries, & we have seen nothing, no ships, no aircraft & no land for the last 3 days.
Travelling again, rail, bus, tram, cab, cruise ship, skis and paddle steamer.
