Comments

Not the most comfortable first night out, but plenty of people up for breakfast which is an encouraging sign. Cool weather after the heated departure yesterday, and we're making good progress to Macca, despite a bit of rolling and yawing. No planned activities, lectures or drills for today: just letting folk get their sea legs. REGARDS Doug and Nicki
