Day 3 at Sea

Hi Everyone!

16.11.46 N 29. 02.10. W
248 miles traveled. 1856 miles to go.

Well...here we are! We're all trying to get our sea legs. We're all feeling a little seasick but we're ok. Miles is the only one who has gotten sick so far.

Our autopilot went out the first night.Luckily, we had another motor to replace it....however we have been hand-steering most of the day trying to give it a rest and only use it at nights.

The girls have been busy doing puzzles and reading magazines. Mom managed to cook one mean so far other wise we've been eating fruit, bread and cereal.

We'll update again in a few days...
