Sorry there's been such a long silence. For a kick off we were delayed by 48 hours because of the snow and blogging was the last thing on my mind as I tried to make all sorts of scenarios to be prepared for any eventualities. We were eventually bussed from Brize Norton to Birmingham where the incoming flight had landed - driving through glorious snow-bedecked Cotswold villages - and landed in Ascension Island two days late. There was no internet access there for various reasons and there never is any on the Royal Mail Ship. Now I'm on St Helena and the tour has gone really well, but with internet access costing £6 per hour, forgive me if this is simply a touch base.
Sailing tomorrow for Namibia and goodness knows when I'll get a chance to bring you up to date on what has been another brilliant trip. There's something very special about the South Atlantic.
Talk to you again soon.
Libby
