blog 2 from avocet.....left cascais 3.00 pm friday22/nov poor winds sat midday 37.09418n10.36,334 w.crew recovering from cascais should be well by canaries presently motoring .weather getting warmer 20 degrees.
We arrived in cascais last sunday after 6 days and 2 hours of sailing. First thing we noticed was that everyone is as brown as a nut, they obviously get more sun than us and it shows in their cheerful demeanour. The marina was quiet pleasant, and we swaggered up to the nearest place to eat, food was amazing well priced and the peole are nice. All that considered, John pointed out from our later experiences the people in the hospitality industry there seem to be on some different scheme alltogether.....................and then I got sick again I'll have to finish this later.
