next day

It is raining, yet it is warm.  Deck of Tanasza is slippery when it is wet... so I slipped. I am wearing an orthosis now. I am fixing what I can (and have to) since I want to be ready when the first weather window opens – I am in a rush to Cape Town, where I am planning to go on a safari.
Self-steering gear parts came on time, a mechanic is coming tomorrow, I’ve ordered a batten for my mainsail, and I went to buy some fuel... not that I remembered to take my credit card with me... Oh well, that’s just me :)
The yacht is turning attention. Many people pop in for a small chitchat for there are not many lone female sailors in the port (a female life – so wonderful:)). I was visited by another bunch of Poles. I like it here, Africa is Africa. Once, I wanted to study Zulu... maybe it’s not too late... I guess it is normal that one dream gives birth to another one.
