April 27th

At sea again, going north. Voyage much the same as before, only ship is crowded. 

Yesterday the ocean was a beautiful light, glowing green & red and the sun set in it like a ball of red hot iron.

Today is all blue with a light swell and many passing sails.    Porpoises all the time sporting about our bows.  They are certainly wonderful swimmers, running through the water as if by magic, without aparent motion of the body.
