Hello From Brazil
Having left Ascension after our brief stay of (8 days which ended up being 28 days), set sail for Brazil which should have been a 8 to 10 day trip. Not much wind in the middle made for slow progress, so we managed to get to Cabedlo in 11 which was not too bad. For a change G was not sick..... except maybe one time
The water has increased in temp to 31deg and so has the air. Brazilian Portuguese is not easy, but so far the people have been great and we have not been mugged. Perhaps tomorrow. HAHAHAHAHA!!!

Some f the more recent photos
Cheers

James too was tested as bait

Perhaps better if we drag him in the water

or if we ask him to kick and splash

That did not work either, so lets try to drag him behind the boat
