We found a stowaway today among the lines on the cabin top.  It was a little gecko that somehow came aboard while we were in Hawaii.  Poor thing looked starved (don't ask - but we all agree he looked starved).  He didn't scurry when we took a closer look - in fact, he moved toward us.  We caught him up in a class, put in a couple drops of water and a few small pieces of cabbage and then set him in a safe place.  Joe checked on him later and he had a piece of cabbage in his (her?) mouth!  We saved him!
Sighting #3.  About 10 dolphins, which were a different type of dolphin than earlier, playing off the port beam.  This one I get to keep all to myself.  Everyone else is taking their afternoon naps in preparation for that last sprint to the Golden Gate.
A little more than 70 miles to go.  But hey, who's counting?
