Day Eight, Arriving at the Galapagos!!

Dear all,

Yesterday evening around 6pm our time, Ocean Lady crossed into the Southern
hemisphere. To celebrate Alan dressed up at King Neptune complete with
beard, crown and trident !! We celebrated with a bottle of champagne and a
chicken stir-fry (photos to follow).

Shortly after supper whilst enjoying a nice cup of coffee we saw a sharks
fin close to the boat, then ten minutes later we saw another/the same fin
again and then another ten minutes went by and we saw it again!! So the
discussion starts is it better to see one shark three times or three
individual sharks? Answers ASAP because we are looking forward to a swim!!

Our friends on Sea Falke are planning to arrive today but are very short on
fuel, so we intend to meet with them shortly and loan them enough fuel to
get to the anchorage. We should then be at the anchorage to meet our agent
around 1pm.

Hope everybody at home is well,

Love Ocean Lady
