Latitude: 17,22,36N
Longitude: 22,48,6W
Course: 209 degrees
Speed: 18.6 knots
Status: Day 7 – at sea
Notes: Our clocks went back one hour at 2:00am this morning – were advised of this the night before. It will happen several times during this journey, in fact I may find I skip a day or two as we cross and re-cross the International Dateline! It also seems that at present I may not be able to back up the photos I am taking onto the external hard drive I have with me – I believed I could use the on-board, public computers but they are restricted to Internet access only. I can use my iPad, but a MacBook Pro would have been a better solution. Still, there may be other options I can explore.
