Thank goodness the day seems cooler. Everyone welcomed this after the heat of the last few days.

As usual, the morning was spent quietly, writing my logbook. We were all very tired after last night�s episode and we didn�t feel like moving around much.

We bought Stuart a small mechanical crane and a novelty snake back from
Aden, and he has been sat playing with them all morning.

It is quite a true saying that we see on the adverts �Out of the blue comes the Whitest Wash�. Here the sea is definitely blue and the breakers are pure white. It is not a bit like the sea at Blackpool or even the Isle of Man. In some places it is beautifully green.

In the deck enclosures were Whist Drives and Twenty Questions, but we were so tired we had an early night in bed.

We have put our watches on every night for a week now, so we are well ahead of British Time.
