Mood of the crew: relaxed
Yesterday evening mother nature impressed us with one of its breathtaking plays: First the wind picked up a little, with the result that the fog disappeared. A little later the cloud cover opened up in the west just big enough to present us with a wonderful sun set. This was followed by the grandiose final act, the ”burning sky”, where the whole sky was appearing to be set on fire.
During the night and this morning we continued the very pleasant and relaxing sailing in light winds.
