I've given myself 2 nights in a small hotel here in Karlskrona to really take a break from being on the boat. My mum, who wanted to come on Monday for my birthday came yesterday to visit me. I enjoyed having her to myself and we had lunch at the same place as for my birthday lunch. Afterwards we picked up the legendary Princess cake and had a piece as a late birthday thingy. We had good talks and she encouraged me for the rest of my sailing trip. She said what I'm doing is really astonishing...
Today is crew change and the morning we spent first relocating the boat closer to power as well as the toilets. I actually woke up at 7 o'clock and thought before everyone is up, I'll sneak over and throw in a load of wash. So I got my bed stuff to wash and other dirty stuff and, placed my sleeping bag to air out on deck and left for the washing room. About 5 minutes later I had started the wash and came out to pouring rain. So I dashed back to save my sleeping bag, luckily Morten had noticed...
