And now it’s tomorrow – At 2734 S 2340 W 04/0715, with the sun just breaking the horizon, we sent a little boat full of goodies towards Henry. It had two jelly snakesNatural fruit-flavoured sweets carried on board. , a red one and a yellow one, from Australia and half a bar of chocolate from England, tied up with the green and red ribbons IsabellaAlex's sister gave us for the shroud telltalesRibbons tied to the shrouds to show the relative wind direction.
