Day 21

Three weeks ago, the JML Rotary Scout left Cape Town, as part of the St Helena race. Since then, we have unfortunately had to drop out of the race, but today we finally have our destination in sight.
The day leading up to this was a pretty average day on board, consisting of reading, swimming, and beating the heat in general.

While swimming, Kyle decided to challenge the boat, and came off second best with a knock next to his eye. He is rather proud of his battle scar, and we’re all glad he’s fine.

Despite our diet of late being mostly canned foods, we somehow managed to have a fresh meal for supper. This consisted of a large Dorado, which was filleted, braai’d and served with butternut mash.

The trip has taken a whole week longer than anticipated, and we’ve really had an adventure. We hope you’ve enjoyed following along via the blog, and hope that you also stay tuned for the delivery blog.

    I hear that the world’s oldest tortoise lives on St Helena. Might be a cool thing to check out before leaving the island. Well done on the trip, I thoroughly enjoyed reading your posts.
