Whales!

Whales have been surfing with us for the last 2 hours. Fantastic! We sailed nicely through the night without squalls. Put the spinnaker back up this morning and even broke our speed record this afternoon. However, as evening approaches, we are losing our wind. The weather forecast calls for lighter winds for the next few days. Maybe we won't reach Antigua by Friday after all. We're going to leave the spinnaker up tonight. Keep our fingers crossed that we don't find any squalls in the dark of the night. I spoke too soon about Mike's energy level. He didn't feel good at all last night and went back on the sauce (Nyquil). He's been sleeping a lot. Good. Maybe now he'll get well.
