The World Thru My Words

Today Adam and I ventured to see some incredibly large ocean racing yachts that are current making a stopover in Norfolk. The VELUX 5 OCEANS race is a solo yacht race around the world. An incredible feat to think about but made even more astonishing when you have seen the size of these yachts. I read that most of the time the boats are on autopilot and the skippers are dealing with the other tasks at hand.

They had traveled over 25,000 miles from England the long way to be in Norfolk !

Here are some pictures from Adam.
