Ahhh…it’s sounds like you’re in a glorious world at the moment (or were, at the time you phonecasted)!! The word picture you painted for us was breathtaking!
What an epic birthday call-out! Thank you Sarah! Can’t wait to exchange belated birthday hugs once you get back to land. In 1980s wetsuits again, perhaps?!
Hello to your whale companions and hold on tight through the winds. Good luck for the final push, and see you very soon!
Sarah,
Today was the first I heard of your voyage and listening to your phonecast was enlightening… Especially the bit about the whale. Have you passed Dutch Harbor (Unalaksa) or will you?
I am now a fan and will follow your journey daily. Stay safe and warm…..
With a smile, Dennis
wow-distance from Lands End to Leeds sounds do-able, doesn’t it? wishing you favourable blowings and currents, enjoying your account of your journey
best wishes

Glad to hear things are on the upside from this phonecast. Too bad you were not in the area when we in AK were getting 19+ hours of sunlight. Still, enjoy what you can see…it’s all beautiful! Tell the whales to keep a bit of distance. Stay warm and get closer to AK when you can.
Thinking about you and turned on a few folks at work to your adventure.
