Tonight I, once again, heard wind in the background. That is good,....too bad that they are going against the current, thus are only still traveling 3-4 knots. They went through a small squall with winds up to 25 knots, but are doing OK. They are close to passing the last island before Tahiti (he named it, but I'm lost on his French pronounciation of these islands....) Now they are about 200 miles away....a couple of days ago it was more like 285. They didn't move very far for a couple of days. When I think of 2oo miles, I think of traveling up to Harbor Springs to see our parent - a 4 hour drive. Not a 3 day journey! Reminds me of wagon train travel in the pioneer days!
