good morning girls
so it's Monday well just get ready to
get going
I'm tidied up as you can see that's all
made but even still the guy we're gonna
do that honest we travel today
everything is packed tightly away Huhn
all that what's gonna be making the
contaminant still got the smoothes up
it's boys just playing but they're gonna
be doing that on the go anyway I love
you too baby and I'm just still waking
up we're gonna be going SuperDuper early
prime wants to leave at about 4 o'clock
this morning I don't know why but Ross
had it in his head that you know we
wanted to go super early
the wind has dropped to the point where
we've got a gap of about three hours
this morning and we're just gonna put it
up to one of the nearest islands and
then anchor up overnight somewhere I
hope to be beautiful and start working
our way around the Greek islands so
we're very excited there's ever this
chocolate milkshake no better place oh
dear anyway weights don't one dot and
you're here good may be done but mummy's
way sickle go away bye bye wait
see you in a design so the kind of
things that would do when we're on the
move to keep kids entertained ah but all
the homeschooling gear behind here so
while we're on the move we've got like
three or four hours spare it's a really
good time because the boys will have
much more attention because it's
literally nothing else to do so we do
quite a lot of learning on the go
and also we tend to time it around meals
so they can eat while we're moving along
as well and if it's gonna be really
rough then obviously you can't really do
that at all
and you just kind of have to hang on for
dear life
watch the behave
bye-bye eels
one Halloween
[Music]
[Music]
[Music]
how we doing guys
yeah like quite a fast sale gaggia sale
is tiring isn't it well the wind has
just dropped I just got all the genero
and now it's dropped to from 22 down to
7 see you starting the motor but it's
okay cuz we're only about four miles
away from our Anchorage you allow that
with a grown-up aren't you unleash much
even though my okay hmm slapping sales
well the anchors should be a yeah so
we're now approaching our destination
let's call me dumb loose now so I think
what is just about to start the engine
I'm just gonna motor to a nice little
Anchorage which is super sheltered and
do some exploring first sails first mate
almost complete
[Music]
Wow this is empty Pyro's its whole Bay
like and we're on about seven meters of
water really it's sound underneath water
it's clear as day beautiful and we're
well dug in happy days how's the water
Josh colony of a ditch take me away so
we check out the beach and the kids have
some playtime Laura gives me a haircut I
give Josh a few games of chess I never
let him win and he's getting better and
better we watched the Sun go down in
this beautiful anchorage we see a tender
fully overloaded we put the kids to bed
and we have a nightcap at the back of
the boat and watch the Sun go down we
end up not being too far behind them so
we've just broke up
- beautiful Anchorage Suns just come up
it's lovely and calm just had the best
night's sleep ever so if you can hear
there are goats with bells on them
walking through the sort of small trees
their plan is today we're going to have
a slow morning and then move on just
after lunch not quite sure where we're
going yet but we'll let you know
[Music]
bye Missy D just go hands fast guy he
bailed on the dye as the water
what's number touches Fred
so we've just been major in the last
hour I had quite a lot of things I
needed to charge up in the distance
we've got our Arsenal to power the
wind's coming from the north really get
some wind thankfully start sailing
that's the plan
we're heading over to Sifnos
which is now in the distance that's our
point so just how our second-to-last
Waypoint
last one is insist on over there white
horses check it around so I reckon yeah
maybe 15 18 knots my prediction looking
at that currently only pain
but we are in the Lee of the Highland so
we'll see in a minute so I can already
feel the wind picking up I think we're
gonna get ourselves out beautiful
I dunno what we doing guys today Noah
what's that first sale
yeah we do hey Josh all right you got
your that keeps you safe doesn't it okay
so we get any freak waves to begin
earlier biggest wake I've ever seen
Dubey drenched yeah well most sailors
would agree you wouldn't really need the
window completely shut you said okay
we're approaching syphilis now I reckon
of
five miles concern beautiful conditions
the waters really calm 10 knots of wind
you're still making headway it will ruin
though much today it's a nice chilled
out sail really really enjoying it today
are you so laura is not quite so grumpy
with me now because the duvet is drying
and I wanted to on this trip do a couple
of Man Overboard drills with the sails
out and the boys are examp using the
Wi-Fi I'm over here abusing the Wi-Fi
and he's over there now you're abusing
the bear
today we just mood up I'll show you an
Ward up
Wow
just just cigarettes with so we're in
knots now which is island on Paris and
Paris
well the t9 power of needles yep so we
deserve that from there today we did
what was it three hours three hours here
three hours it was really chilled out
the whole way to tell you the
terminology now 6.2 not close hauled in
about 12 to 14 months of winter it did
die down to six just at the end and we
decided to motor because we're going
about two
complete gobbledygook to me well
actually I'm trying to understand a
little bit of it
it was few positions everything was
awesome and then a big fat shipping
container of some description but
perhaps should I could tell you this man
Stephen is going on the catenary
shipping containers it was anyway the
wings were really big and the sea was
really half say like we went over and
[Music]
duvets nearly dry now we went over that
a little chilled out and then Ross
decided CDs man Airport and that went
well
yeah when you get to watch that video
you may see like the first half like
from today and then the second half
probably from a few bucks time with such
a bad made
yeah so anyway moving on shame about the
staff but then we got here syphilis
