We are now at about the same latitude as Hawaii and are
feeling the tropics. The daytime temperature is over 85 F (29 C) with a sea
temp of almost 75 F (24 C). We are down to shorts and tee shirt. If the sky
clears and it gets any hotter we will have on even less on and break out the
wet washcloths for evaporative cooling. We can now see the bruises from all the
‘turbulence’. In the last report we said the motion got as bad as the worst
airliner turbulence. It was not as bad as Tuesday’s
Singapore Airlines flight from Heathrow however.
We mentioned downloading podcasts to our phones while
Starlink is on for entertainment later on watch. With our subscription to
Spotify we are getting the latest from Tucker Carlson,
Megyn Kelly
and Joe Rogan.
