Journal Entry – Thursday November 4, 2004

Author: Pam

There was virtually no wind from 0530 to 1730. We made very little progress and this was insult to injury as we just wanted to get to Cabo and have our engine looked at. As we continue to read Lionheart, Jessie was becalmed for four days, and so we decided that we could not be too disappointed in our slow progress, we also had a safe boat with a functional rig to get us to Cabo, so our sickly engine and lack of progress were just inconveniences.

We made our first dinner that was not completely from a can. We dined on spaghetti with red sauce and clams, and green beans. Well I guess most of it was from a can or jar, but it was a little more like a traditional dinner. We ate heartily and decided we should use more clams in the future.

At 2000 we talked to Western Grace on the SSB and finally found out Bush won the election. I guess we are destined to stay out of the country for at least four more years.

We both finished Clan of the Cave Bear today.
