Off the coast of South America

Hello friends & family~

Greetings from the Atlantic Ocean...only just a few degrees above the Equator now - wow! There's no land in site this day. We had been enjoying panoramic views of a few islands as we made our way out of the Caribbean, as Bill mentioned in another post.

The water has changed again, back to the true blue, choppy Atlantic. Yesterday, as we stirred awake and did our routine look out the window above our bed, we found the water to be clear as glass and grey in color. As the day progressed, it became slightly greener in color with a dark blue line on the horizon.

And yesterday, just at the start of an early lunch, Bill & I spotted 2 pods of humpback whales!! Sarah, I've also spotted some flying fish. ;)

Am still working on adding photos - have found my lil' old laptop to be quite slow with our limited bandwidth.

Much love to all,
heather ;)
