I thought it was going to be just ourselves for this trip but the dolphins are back. We have had 3 large groups visit. Half a dozen or so of the second group were well clear of the water on a regular basis as they approached. Almost like they were trying to get the best early view of Giselle. Just seen a storm petrel. He is 140 miles from the nearest land – Western Sahara.
More cargo vessels. We have seen one every 3 hours since the last blog post yesterday.

I hadn’t appreciated how easy it is to leave and enter the ocean currents. We are back in the Canaries Current now but for a period we lost it yesterday. 0.5 knot went to zero, sea cooled by a degree and colour was grey rather than the currents turquoise.
