La giornata di oggi inizia con occhiaie e muscoli intorpiditi, ma si sviluppa nel migliore dei modi. Randa ridotta, genoa intero, andatura di bolina larga su un oceano blu che più blu non si può. Nuvole bianche incorniciano un cielo azzurro mentre noi voliamo a 8 nodi verso destinazione. Non che in questo momento del viaggio ci interessi molto la destinazione comunque. Ha più importanza il momento presente, la schiuma che si forma al nostro passaggio, il rumore del risucchio dell’acqua, il vento tra le vele, le onde che ci superano. Come facciamo a trasmettere la sensazione di sentirci liberi, qui, ora, circondati solo dal mare e da qualche uccello? Come si fa a spiegare i colori a chi è nato cieco? Che viaggio ragazzi 💙
