Sailing : Day 89 onboard Roxy in the Vendée Globe

Sam Davies’ daily log - Things I will miss from my Vendée voyage

“Well, now there is less than a week to go to the finish, I am starting to get excited! However, there are a lot of things I will miss about my Vendée voyage aboard Roxy.

Things I will miss:
- Sunsets and sunrises
- Peace and quiet (no mobile phone)
- Private "Ipod karaoke" moments
- Being able to eat chocolate whenever I want
- The vacation radio
- The dolphins
- Not having to brush my hair every day
- The stars and the moon

Things I won't miss:
- The infamous "bucket"
- Bailing out bilges
- Stacking

Things I'm looking forward to:
- My "cheri"
- My cats
- Fresh fruit
- A cold beer
- A hot shower
- Drinking tea out of a real mug (with a handle)
