"Nothing really new. Just another class day. Mostly overcast today. Had a little light rain this morning, but just cloudy, dry, and hot since them. We've cut our speed a little, but yes, you can certainly feel the difference when we're going very fast. I think we're now off Costa Rica, but still staying way off shore.
"The 2 brown boobies of yesterday have grown to a feathery armada of at least 30 boobies accompanying us today. 5 or 6 at a time floating off he bow, the rest flying along the sides, occasionally diving in for a fish. They're quite pretty birds, so this is most entertaining. I understand the cadet on watch at the bow last night got bombed with a bird poop. I guess the birds were heading for Panama anyway and decided we could shove them along.
"Another BBQ planned for tomorrow [Sunday, May 14], although there's certainly a good chance of rain. Don't know what the plans are if it dose rain. Guess I'll find out then.
"OK, I was taking a little break from sketching out the art manuscript for the one new chapter that will go in the 2e. But about time to climb back up the stairs and resume work. I estimate I climb 40 to 50 flights of stairs a day. Good for the muscle tone, although, unfortunately, that only burns about 100 calories."
