Up at 4.30 a.m. Sunrise and cocoa. Church and rounds at 10 a.m. Spent the whole day painting. Fresh breeze all day. A few heavy rain squalls.
Have been under steam and sail all day, doing 9 knots but generally 7. We saw two dolphins yesterday, and a whale blow today. We saw also a White Tern (Cygis candida and a Black Tern or Noddy (Anous) and one small Petrel (Cymodroma grallaria).
Fresh breezy day with few heavy rain squalls. Wrote up my diary and sketched at sunset.
