Madeleine Kelly's Birthday

I have known Madeleine for many years, and she always told me how much she loves the sea and wishes to go sailing. The invitation was always there for her to come aboard. Finally she said I would love to spend my birthday sailing.  We were concerned about the weather, But Madeleind being a Sweed, and her husband Mike from England  we decided that there is nothing to worry about in our genle well protected Biscayn Bay. and yes Suzie Manning, who is from Germany and happen to have her birthday on the 20th, so the crew were willing and the Captain decided to go for it.
Well it was a very eventful and exhilirating day, full of different sailing condiitions, heavy wind to no wind, sun then clowds, then rain, absolutlry not boring. Mike  brought the Chamapgne and the straw berries, Suzie brough some delicios lentil salad and I brought some Egyptian Fava beans and Quinoa, so we had a feast under sail
Here is what Madeleine wrote in the log:

"20/09/2009 what a date,20th of September, 2009
When I was a kid I mentioned many times " guess what " in 2009 0n my birthday it will also be the year as my birthday!
I have always felt comfortable at sea and on Boats, thinking what I should do this year, It came quite natural to take Captain Asaad up on his offer to come sailing. It was a wonderful sail with a sky full of life- wind, thunder, lightning , rain and sun, great conversations and perfect way to start my birthday, Madeleine"
