October 26th – Hurricane Dodging in the Bermuda Triangle

Sailing through the Bermuda Triangle is bad enough, but when you see on the news that a huge great Hurricane (Sandy) is tearing up the Caribbean, that puts me on edge. However, the hurricane is in the Western Caribbean, and we're heading to the Eastern Caribbean, and the Captain assures us that we're going round the edge of it so should only feel a few ripples.

So, after 1 and a half days, he's been true to his word, and it's only been cloudy and mildly choppy. Actually, cloudy weather is good news for a Destination Lecturer, as his sun-worshipping audience have to go inside to seek what passes for "entertainment" in his lectures.
