CNE Greenland – Wed 29th April

April 29th, 2009

Position: 52° 38.52 N, 20° 08.75 W 

Health: All fine

Weather: North easterly winds again but suntans coming along nicely!

Blog from onboard Fleur: So the good winds didn’t last longer than a day and we are back struggling against the north easterly winds. It has been another frustrating day as we head north, north-east to avoid another bad weather system. We’re now 800 miles from the southern tip of Greenland, approximately half way in terms of distance but not time at sea we fear!

Still we are keeping our spirits high and spent most of the chatting and discussing the meaning of life – good team bonding!

There are at least a dozen arctic terns that have been following Fleur from Ireland. We like to think of them as our guardian angels.
