Day 3- Actively Inactive

Wondering what were upto today? Heres a look.

Not a whiff of air nor a ripple showed up at sea. Glassy calm, thats what we call it.
For sailboats, getting becalmed this is not quite a likeable situation because we obviously need breeze to move us. But hey, we dont let such days of go in vain. After a morning wake up by Hanuman Chalisa played by Payal(puko) followed by her praying to God for some wind, we all lied out on the deck to gather some sun tan and our standard sauna bath. I bet you wont find a better deal anywhere else! 


Yummy in the Tummy
Breakfast menu had paratha and mix veg prepared by Pratibha(jammy) that we thouroughly enjoyed the sea We will update the individual activities onboard  
jammy has tried out new outfit bought by her coursemate(aish) from delhi she's not getting  it off anytime soon 
Our woman at helm, we discovered last night is a woman of steel she lifted up the main sail two reefs all by herself as i took the wheel and watched in awe,i warn you she can beat the shit out of anyone shes just being patient
swathi(swatcat) overwhelmed us with a delicious lunch shes just come out of her solitude and beauty sleep and all charged up now
our chirpy bird vijaya(shou) seems to be quiet since we sailed out otherwise she always entertains us with classic english and hindi songs 
puko is learning the tricks and trades of south indian cooking shes considering if she should choose a south indian boy for her love of the food 
Good seamanship practices "The Naval Way"
Eagle?
last but not the least we had another visitor onboard today i believe its an eagle have a look
