As we come to conclude our second day at sea i take upon myself this huge responsibility of making an entry to our blog and also make it more interesting and interactive. the readers are free to  share comment and ask questions 
i must tell you how much calm and at peace i am coming back to the sea and all of us infact agree that last night we had the most peaceful sleep that we could only dream of in the past few days/months after our return
trip from Mauritius. We had quite an interesting day yesterday to begin with for a short while that we were in the range of Mobile towers making last minute calls to loved ones.. as now we stay in communication with them 
only through Emails and probably this blog.We even had a little visitor onboard, a small sparrow whom we lovingly named Mr Pichku who stayed for the night with us before he jumped into the sea early today morning
After mourning his sudden absence,i decided to shift my attention to Yummy Burger made by pratibha and catch up on some movies and reading books which otherwise we were unable to get time for.As of now me and 
pratibha are wondering what to eat tomorrow morning and what we will get to shop in capetown-our destination readers are free to give ideas/recommedations.
hello from mr pichku
