Day 449 or On Our Way Once Again!

After five months, three false starts and lots of fun times, we're officially on our way! We've left the port behind and are now on our way to Cape Town for a full refilling, which will be anywhere from twenty-four, forty-eight to any amount of hours you can imagine! We started leaving about eleven this morning and have been sailing for about six hours now. I'm glad to say that my stomach still seems to love sailing as much as I do, something I am very thankful about!

Here are some pictures as we left South African Shipyards, our home for the almost half a year.

The dilapidated old boat that rot- ehem, I mean lived next to us.


Our lonely little gangway that we left behind.




The helicopter that came and picked up the pilot. When we come in and out of port, the port will supply a pilot to navigate though the waters in port. They don't however want to sail with us, so South African Shipyard had a helicopter to pick and drop him off!



And the answer to last weeks quote was Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy, quote said by Trillian.
