Cruising sailors tend to prefer things like swimming from their boat; Racing sailors prefer the water on top of their boat instead; They will spend as much money on sails as their boat is worth; They will sail so close together you could jump to the next boat; They will remove their dodger so they can fully enjoy all that water on top of their boat; They will crawl onto a pitching foredeck to lash down a sail because they don’t have a furler; They will climb onto the boom to install a reef line so they don’t have to slow the boat down; They will fly a spinnaker in 20 knots of wind or more; They won’t even bother taking down their own spinnaker, and will just let God do it; And they will do all of this whether it’s day or night, regardless of whether they can see or not; All for getting their boat’s name engraved on some stupid trophy, and getting some yellow flags to boast about their accomplishments, and for some unforgettable moments with friends - priceless!!!

L’alba arriva come un bicchiere d’acqua per gli assetati: ardentemente attesa e parecchio sofferta. Fortunatamente i temporali previsti da ben 3 app meteo si sono scaricati prima di raggiungerci, perciò la notte è stata asciutta. Invece l’onda di prua, non grossa ma molto corta e frequente, ci ha accompagnati per tutta la notte, rendendo il sonno un desiderato miraggio. Sono immensamente grata della decisione strategica di fare questi trasferimenti durante il weekend, perché oggi lavorare sarebbe stato un incubo. Invece è sabato, quindi pisolini, un po’ di pesca, podcast e altri pisolini. Un delfino è venuto a nuotare pigramente alla nostra prua per qualche minuto, prima di tornare ai suoi affari del sabato. Siamo anche riusciti, cambiando tattica e rotta, ad andare per un po’ solo a vela, per poi tornare tristemente a smotorare, altrimenti entro lunedì non saremo mai a destinazione e come dicevo poco fa sarebbe alquanto complicato conciliare il lavoro con la veglia notturna. Quindi si smotora (“Giù la manetta!” Per i veri appassionati di nautica) Il tramonto oggi si presenta più roseo, nessun nuvolone nero all’orizzonte, nessuna cattiva previsione. Contiamo di sganciare Porto Rico domani sera. Ci aggiorniamo! Camilla

This is a short video of how to make homemade pasta using flour and eggs. The flour that I am using is 00 flour, which is finely grained and that is said to be the best to use for pasta dough.
