Full moon

When the sun set and the moon rise at the same time
It’s full moon  !!!Haouuuuuuuuuu!!!
The sun, the hearth and the moon are almost in line
If they was exactly in line, the moon will be in the shade of the hearth
This is call a moon eclipse

In the middle of the Atlantic or at sea in general
A full moon is quite impressive
The light of the sun reflect on the moon surface
and come back on Sea with a different color or spectre
Many shades of blue are blinking on the waves
The full rigging is lighted on a strange way

Sailing down trade winds bellow the full moon
is something special I can’t miss
please, do like me, finish reading your mails
turn off your computer,your house lights
go walk in the night
if you can find a place out of the fu***ng  city lights

I go walk on deck
drink a coffee
smoke a cigarette

Enjoy the night
I wish you good rest
And nice dreams who go with

Here, we are living one

Greetings from Tres Hombres
