Well the wind is back and the motor is finally off!! With 15-20 knots of we don’t need the extra push of the engine and the sailing is fun so we are back to hand steering. At this point we are only a couple of days out and things are starting to look like home. The wind is up, the water is cold and grey and the sky is overcast most of the time with a bit of mist mixed in to the spray to make sure our foulies are still waterproof. Oh yeah we are all wearing our foulies on deck because it wouldn’t feel like home without covering every square inch of my body before going on deck. While to most people all those things sound pretty miserable, I love it. To me it just feels like home and means we are getting close. A bitter sweet feeling of knowing this adventure is coming to a close which and excitement to get back to dry stable land and my friends and family. Already planing the next adventure in my head. Until then keeping warm and dry and moving fast are the priorities

Finalment le vent est revenu et on a couper le motor!! On a 15-20 knoeuds de vent et on n’as plus besoin de l’aide du motor, on a etaint l’autopilot comme on s’amuse a barrer. La on est a plus que quelques jours de San Francisco et je commence a reconnaitre. Le vent est monter, l’eau est froid, le ciel est gris et et la brume et les eclabouse nous rassurre que nos cires sont bien etanche. Bein sur le plus on se raproach de notre destanation on se rapell que on doit se couvrir entirement avant de monter sur le pont. Pour la plus part des gens ce semblerais miserable mais moi j’adore ca. Pour moi ca me rapelle chez moi et ca veut dire que on s’approche. C’est un sentiment confilt comme ca veut dire que cette aventure se termine mais je vais retrouver le terre sec et solid et ma famille et mes amis. Je pense deja au procain aventure. mais jusque a la les priorites sont de garder chaud rester sec et d’avancer.
