Cockpit

This morning I spent sitting in the cockpit. During the lunch time, I was also in the cockpit.

I moved to the other side of cockpit in the early afternoon since we tacked.

The late afternoon however brought some unexpected changes. I went into the galley to get some soda! Then, I returned to cockpit.

It's amazing how doing nothing makes you even lazier. And, it's so tiring too! Watching the waves splash and pass by can be a whole day occupation.

Nevertheless, I managed to read large chunk of one of my books, so there is some sense of accomplishment.

Also, my beard is growing longer.

This wind is really not favorable to us right now so we are thinking about
alternatives. We are checking to see if we can get some fuel at Progreso, a small town on Yucatan, in which case we would later motor to Isla Mujeres. If not, we'll have to continue to zigzag up wind.

We saw a set of sails far on the horizon in front of us. So far that's the first encounter we've had with other boats. It soon disappeared from the sight as they were probably going in the opposite direction.

That's it for today, TTYL.
