Almost there II

We're getting closer to the African mainland now, yesterday evening we saw the first ship since weeks at close quarters. Of all the ships in the world it was a tug and tow. The tug 'Salvage Leader' towing a container vessel from Nigeria (I think) to Shanghai. That's quite a trip ahead. Tomorrow we'll shorten our tow wire a take away the heavy chain. Then we're ready for entering port on May 5th. I hope that we're back at sea the same day, bound for Rotterdam! The sea and sky are still empty on this picture, but that will change very rapidly I think.
