Fairly good day with winds from the SE of around 15 knots most of the day giving us a nice beam reach.  Seas still a bit agitee especially in the afternoon.  Catching up on sleep most of the day, but at least we are not suffering the ill effects of a last minute Kava party that a couple of the boats on SSB have reported – no sympathy for Mark and John!  Calmed down a bit overnight with wind coming and going between 10 and 20 knots.  Felt much better this morning so had a good breakfast of fresh pineapple, papaya and banana salad (trying to eat all this fruit before we get to New Cal otherwise it will be taken off us) and scrambled eggs on toast with fresh coffee – luxury!  Even had a hot shower – feel almost human!  Wind this morning from ESE at 14 knots.   Around 300 m to go.
