Itamaraca, Brazil – Aug 4, 2006
Grant worked with Roddy all day and Will worked with Grant. It’s a cloudy dreary day—the first real one here—so it was a good day for working on the boat. Late in the afternoon, the crew took Will and Grant ashore to play rugby in the sand; they all came back exhausted. Phil spent the day with Luigi who introduced him to John Pollok, who is the retired head of the police in Recife, near here. His father was British and his mother old-line Brazilian and he speaks several languages, including English. A quiet day. —Kitty
