June 12 - Arrived

We're here. Short update...

17 days, 2 storms, 4 days of becalmed and otherwise beating to weather (uphill climb) the whole way.  We averaged 4.8knots. We saw 4 whales, 100's of dolphins, birds, and jellyfish.  We're in the Azores now (about 1000 miles off the Euro coast). A fantastically beautiful place. Lush green scenery on volcanic islands. Think Ireland meets Hawaii... 

We'll be leaving again tomorrow morning (could only spend two days here as we used all our weather window time up in Bermuda...) Weather looks good now, so we'll be off in the morning after one more night of sleep in a horizontal position. 

From here - 9 days, ~1000 miles to Lisbon.   (More photo's, video's etc. once we arrive there!)

Fair Winds (Please!)
