Change of Plans

Well I finally cracked yesterday. Bashing to windward with Sunflower stalling with the current and waves we called it quits and altered course 20 degrees and will head for the San Blas Islands much more comfortable ride, the current on our port side so we are making a lot better speed and it's a lot more comfortable although still getting the odd wave crashing over us making a racquet. We were both excited about Colombia but it will have to wait.
Also had a life changing experience yesterday. In this shitty weather we find ourselves eating a lot of 2 minute noodles, try chopping up a bit of cabbage and boiling it with the noodles adding a touch of soy sauce and wallah, 3'minute feast:)
Between those and the 2 blocks of cheese and crackers I've eaten I'm looking foreword to a fresh fish BBQ I can tell you.
Well it's 3am now and so far haven't had a squall all night but no doubt writing this will jinx it for sure, so far so good. Although yesterday's sad run was just 104nm, today's should be a lot better. 265nm to the San Blas from here, hopefully Thursday morning arrival
