Day 64 : 10 February 2011

Hello All

Finally we made better speed during the previous 24 hours almost averaging 11 knots. The sea temperature is rising all the time as we pass the ocean front. Only one iceberg was detected by radar this morning, hopefully it will be the last.

Tonight, shortly after supper, we are expected to reach out northerly most point on the Greenwich Meridian after which we will alter more towards Cape Town on the 2nd last leg of the Good Hope Transect line.

Excitement for the arrival in Cape Town is now slowly building as we see the outside temperature also on an upward trend....hopefully we will not melt in the heat of Cape Town :-)
